William Rees
Life Coach, PCC
As a gay man myself, I understand that navigating identity, relationships, belonging, and self-acceptance can come with unique challenges, and I bring both personal understanding and professional coaching experience to this work. I offer a welcoming, affirming, and judgment-free space where LGBTQ+ individuals can explore who they are, embrace their identities, navigate life’s complexities, and build lives and relationships that feel genuinely their own.

Dr. Yuye Zhang
Psychologist, PhD, MSW
I offer an affirming space for LGBTQ+ adults to explore identity, relationships, belonging, and the pressures that can come with navigating environments that may not fully understand or affirm who you are. Therapy can also provide room to explore the intersection of sexuality or gender with family, culture, race, and other parts of your identity, without asking you to separate one part of yourself from another.

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.

MN Couples & Family Therapy
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Everyone has the right to be able to be who they are, to love whom they love, and to be understood. Most of the work I do in the LGBTQ space is in couples therapy. I am able to approach the unique nuances and challenges that LGBTQ couples may face, allowing me to deliver the best therapy results for each & every client. I have many family members who identify within the LGBTQ community.
