Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
For many queer and trans people, the project of selfhood involves a double labor: becoming who you are while contending with a world that has opinions about whether that person should exist. The effects are not always dramatic. Sometimes they are quiet — a lifelong habit of self-editing, a flinch so practiced it no longer registers as a flinch. Therapy is a place where the full weight of that experience can be acknowledged, and where the self that survived it can begin to discover what it wants when it is no longer organizing itself around someone else's discomfort.

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
Much of my career has focused on supporting LGBTQIA people in any number of ways. Whether you're at a point where you're considering coming out, if you're exploring your sexual or gender identity, or need space to process the important relationships in your life, this can be a great space to do some work. Many LGBTQIA people have had to make compromises in their lives to fit into social norms that don't mirror queer realities, and doing so can leave a real impact. I love to help LGBTQIA people work toward becoming more fully themselves.

Whether you're wanting to increase self-understanding, explore relationship patterns, or navigate other areas of your life, you deserve to be able to hold all aspects of your identity with compassion and care.

Nick Sotor
Psychologist, PsyD
I operate from lens of decolinization and anti-racism that informs the way I view, relate, and treat all people, including those within the LQBTQ community. I provide a non-judgemental space to talk about all aspects of sexual and gender identity and tend to conceptualize stress and suffering around sexual identity as a product of living within a homophobic/transphobic society rather than a function of internal pathology.
