As an ally to LGBTQ+ people, I am committed to providing you with high quality service that suits your needs. Wherever on the rainbow you are, know that you are accepted and respected. I have some experience in this area, but hesitate to call myself an expert because, as you know, unless you are living and being in the world as an LGBTQ+ - you don't *really* know. However, I get regular training as an ally and am truly open to hearing your experience plus I bring 20+years of therapeutic knowledge of working with LGBTQ+ to the table.

McKinney, Texas therapist: Kreins Psychological Services, psychologist
LGBT Issues

Kreins Psychological Services

Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist committed to supporting the mental health and well-being of the LGBT+ community, my approach to treatment is rooted in cultural humility, affirming the diverse identities and experiences of each individual. Through a safe and inclusive therapeutic space, I provide affirmative therapy that validates clients' identities, experiences, and challenges they may face due to societal stigma and discrimination. Utilizing culturally competent and evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and interpersonal therapy, I work collaboratively with clients to address concerns related to coming out, family acceptance, relationship issues, and identity exploration. Additionally, I advocate for social support networks and community resources to facilitate connection and resilience. My goal is to empower LGBT+ individuals to navigate life authentically, foster self-acceptance, and thrive in their identities.

Chicago, Illinois therapist: Jamie Warren, therapist
LGBT Issues

Jamie Warren

Therapist, LSW
Whether I'm working with fellow LGBTQ+ or allied clients, my own queerness offers me a unique perspective: a rejection of the notion that there is a way love or a relationship is meant to look, an acceptance that everything can be fluid–especially when it comes to human feelings and identity, and most importantly, a lack of judgment.
