Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a member of the LGBT community, and as someone who holds degrees both in psychology and LGBT Health and Policy, I couple an academic understanding of the unique disparities that come with these identities with a profound personal knowledge of them in my own life. Not all patients have had positive experiences with the medical community, so it is my hope that my education and bisexual identity will serve my patients in a way that makes them feel both heard and seen. I also recognize that our identities can be static, or they can be fluid, and that the coming out process isn’t something we do just once: we do it over and over again. I do not personally identify as cisgender, and so I approach the issues facing the transgender, nonbinary, genderqueer, and gender non-conforming communities with deep empathy and personal understanding. From fluidity to transitioning, hormone replacement therapy, to writing letters for surgery, I am committed to supporting my clients on their journeys. Not everyone experiences their own gender in the same way, so the discussion of gender as a construct and societal gender norms is at the forefront of our discussions in working through the big mess that is gender.

KAREN L GUTHERLESS
Therapist, LIMHP CPC AND OTHER LICENSE IN TN, MN, KS, IA, NJ
I enjoy all people and that includes the LGBT population with dealing with trauma that they experience from being disowned by their family, peers and society as a whole for being queer or adjusting to their identity and sense of belonging.

Katherine Jones
Counselor/Therapist, ND, MA, LPC
I provide affirming and inclusive support for individuals within the LGBTQ+ community. I am committed to creating a safe and welcoming space where clients can explore their identities, navigate challenges, and celebrate their authentic selves. I understand the unique experiences and concerns faced by LGBTQ+ individuals, whether it's related to coming out, discrimination, family dynamics, relationship issues, or mental health struggles. Through culturally competent and affirming therapy approaches, I empower clients to embrace their identities, cultivate self-acceptance, and live fulfilling lives aligned with their true selves.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Sexual orientation and gender identity development are my areas of focus, and we use this space to make sure all intersecting identities (e.g., racial, religious, political, national) are considered as you find your authentic path in the world. This space is one where we can focus on your sexual orientation and/or gender identity development, or use these identities as a source of context to our work. In addition, I work with many trans*, non-binary, gender nonconforming, gender fluid, and other gender expansive folx as they embark on their path of congruence. In addition, I write letters of support for gender affirming surgeries/medical procedures.

Kristy Campbell
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPS, LSC
LGBTQ+ individuals often face unique challenges, including discrimination, prejudice, and feelings of marginalization in various aspects of their lives. These issues can arise in places such as work, healthcare, housing, and education, where they might not always receive fair treatment. Additionally, the emotional toll of societal stigma can lead to heightened levels of anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns. Navigating relationships can be particularly tough, as some may experience rejection or misunderstanding from those they care about. As an ally and licensed professional counselor, my goal is to provide a warm, supportive space where LGBTQ+ individuals feel valued and understood. Together, we can work towards overcoming these challenges, fostering resilience, and celebrating the unique strengths and identities that each person brings to the world.
