LGBT Issues
Dr. Sven Schild
Psychologist, PhD, SEP, TCC
My approach to working with LGBT issues involves integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Experiencing (SE). ACT helps clients embrace their identity and experiences, encouraging psychological flexibility and value-driven actions. EMDR is used to process and resolve trauma related to discrimination, rejection, or other negative experiences, fostering healing and resilience. SE addresses the physiological impacts of stress and trauma, helping clients release stored tension and restore balance. This comprehensive approach supports LGBT clients in navigating their unique challenges, promoting self-acceptance, and enhancing overall well-being.

Melanie Lewis
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
It’s especially important for me that anyone who identifies as LGBTQ+ knows that they can bring their whole selves into the room. It takes courage to live in a way where you are judged just for existing - and that can feel exhausting. The counseling relationship should be exactly the opposite of that experience. My personal connection to the LGBTQ community (and other non-traditional life experiences) makes me especially passionate about joining you in the journey of discovery about how to bring out all the strengths you already possess, and use them to propel you forward!

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I have a passion for helping clients who are working on gender identity and sexual orientation - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. Many of my clients have stated that coming to therapy has helped to catapult them out of their stagnation - enabling them to reach their full potential. For clients who have had difficulty finding a therapist who can understand their complex and intersecting identities, I can be a breath of fresh air. I work with folks ages 15 and up.

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.

Rachel W. Friendly, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
It can be so hard to find affirming, safe spaces where we can explore our whole, authentic selves - where we can truly be all of us, in our largeness, our messiness, and our queerness. And especially these days, gender expansiveness can feel particularly scary. Gender trauma is real - but living inauthentically is excruciating. I work with queer and gender expansive adults who want to live their truth and explore their identities, but who might not be sure where to start. We can dig in to what may be holding you back, so that you can start to craft your truest, most beautiful life. We can investigate the internalized messages that may lead to shame or self-doubt. And we can work on replacing those messages with self-compassion, curiosity, and self-love. Together, we can help you to become your truest, most beautiful self.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
In my work with LGBTQ+ individuals in psychotherapy, I strive to create a warm and supportive environment where clients can explore and embrace their authentic selves. I understand the unique challenges they may face, such as issues related to gender identity, sexual orientation, navigating relationships, and experiences of discrimination. By using a compassionate and non-judgmental approach, I help clients address these concerns while affirming their identity and experiences. I custom tailor therapy to meet each person where they are at, recognizing and valuing their individual history and circumstances. Whether it's processing feelings of uncertainty, building self-esteem, or developing strategies to handle discrimination, my goal is to support clients in living fully and confidently as their true selves, empowering them to build meaningful and fulfilling lives.
