Corina Bair
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As part of the LGBTQIA+ community myself, I am passionate about providing a safe, open-minded, and welcoming space for people of all backgrounds and identities. I have years of experience working with teens, young and middle-aged adults as well as family members of those who identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community. I thrive on helping others discover who they are and feel more empowered to be that person in every day life. Assisting my clients with building insight and understanding into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is an essential part of my therapy practice, and I provide evidence-based practice tools that you can use outside of therapy as well.

Eric van der Voort
Psychologist, PsyD, CST, CSWT
As a psychologist treating individuals of Gender, Sexuality, and Relationship Diversity (GSRD), my practice is inclusive of those of all genders, sexual orientations, identities, kinks, relationship structures, and behaviors between consenting adults. I provide stigma-free, affirming, high-quality individual therapy to those in the LGBTQ+ and GSRD communities. I am committed to helping you feel safe, valued, and deeply respected.
Could you use a safe space to talk about your thoughts, feelings, challenges, and goals? Maybe you’re feeling confused about your sexual and erotic identity and attractions. Perhaps you’re seeking relationship help from someone who understands the challenges, stigma, and discrimination you face. If you find yourself outside of the strictly heterosexual, cis-gendered, and/or monogamous boxes, then you’ve come to the right place! No judgments. Just an offer for a strong support system with a unique knowledge base and skill set to help you on your journey.
If you are seeking help from a GSRD-affirming therapist or an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, call me today. I would be happy to speak with you about how therapy might be helpful in reaching your goals.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) issues therapy, also known as LGBT-affirmative therapy or LGBTQ+ counseling, provides LGBT community members with support and understanding tailored to their unique experiences and difficulties. LGBT-affirmative treatment seeks to create a secure and welcoming environment where clients can explore their identities, resolve concerns about their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression, and work toward greater self-acceptance and well-being.
Therapists who provide LGBT-affirmative therapy know the potential effects of heteronormativity, cisnormativity, and other forms of prejudice on their clients. They endeavor to foster an accepting, affirming, and nonjudgmental environment of diverse gender and sexual identities.
Not all therapists have specialized training or experience working with LGBT issues. If you are looking for LGBT-affirming therapy, it is recommended that you seek out therapists who advertise their expertise in this area or inquire about their experience with LGBT clients during the initial consultation.
Overall, LGBT-affirmative therapy aims to assist LGBT individuals in navigating their unique challenges, developing resilience, and fostering positive mental health and well-being in a secure and affirming therapeutic environment.
