Dr. Weston Donaldson
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
As an LGBTQ+ person, you've probably gotten pretty good at figuring things out for yourself. But then life throws you a curveball you can't simply think your way through, problem-solve your way out of, or grit your teeth and muscle through forever.
Maybe you're grieving someone you lost - or something that others don't even recognize as a loss. Maybe your relationship has changed, your health isn't what it used to be, or you're caring for someone you love and wondering how much longer you can keep going. You may be functioning just fine on the outside, while feeling pretty damn exhausted on the inside.
I'm Dr. Weston Donaldson, a gay psychologist and founder of Proud Heart Therapy Services, LLC. I help LGBTQ+ adults coping with grief, loss, trauma, and complicated transitions that come with getting older. Being part of the queer community means I bring a familiarity with our relationships, chosen families, histories, and experiences that can make these challenges more complex. You shouldn't have to spend your therapy sessions explaining why your relationships matter or why a particular loss has hit you so hard.
For me, the magic sauce of therapy is relationship. You can bring the messy feelings, the contradictions, the things you're not sure you're supposed to say out loud. My job isn't to tell you how you should feel or hand you a generic set of coping skills. It's to help you understand what's happening, reconnect with your own wisdom, and figure out what you want your life to look from here on out.
You don't have to stop grieving, have everything figured out, or know exactly what you need before reaching out. If you're tired of going through this time alone, let's talk. I'd be glad to hear what's going on and see whether we're a good fit.

Kimberlee Zetocha Halverson
Psychologist, Ph.D, LP
I help people create more balance in their lives by learning when to pause, be present, and step out of the constant pressure of “what’s next.” Many individuals find themselves shaped by old patterns or past experiences that make it hard to move forward. My approach focuses on helping you ride the waves of life with greater resilience—navigating the unpredictable storms rather than feeling anchored in them. While we can’t prepare for every unexpected moment, we can build the tools and skills to manage whatever comes our way. Tides shift, storms pass, and calmer waters are possible.
I don’t believe in a one‑size‑fits‑all approach. I tailor treatment to your preferences, goals, schedule, and life circumstances. I also offer structured, evidence‑based therapies when a more guided path is helpful. With over 15 years of experience supporting individuals with a wide range of concerns, I bring both flexibility and clinical depth to the work we do together.
For more information, please visit my website. You’ll find a secure, private patient portal with built‑in video sessions, scheduling, communication, and payment options—all in one encrypted, easy‑to‑use platform, including a mobile app for added convenience.

Michele Donalson
Licensed Professional Counselor
I am passionate about helping couples figure out their "communication issues" which are often much more deeply rooted in ways that the partners have not made a connection to yet. Past relationships, hurts from loved ones and/or trauma from childhood or any poor experience may contribute to how one shows up today along with being a black man or woman living in today's world. These are all factors that may contribute to relationship distress and should be addressed.
