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.

Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
As a gay psychologist, I understand that LGBTQ+ experiences are shaped by far more than identity alone. Whether you're navigating coming out, relationships, family dynamics, marginalization stress, or simply looking for a therapist who understands your lived experience, I offer an affirming space where every part of you is welcome. Together, we'll explore life's challenges with curiosity, compassion, and a focus on building a life that brings meaning, vitality, and purpose. My goal is to help you build greater flexibility in responding to challenging emotions and experiences so that your day-to-day rhythm feels more authentic, connected, and free.
