Merritt Posten Benz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
People are people, couples are couples and therapeutic work is open to everyone but/and if you identify within the LGBTQI community, there are circumstances and struggles that you must uniquely face. Navigating a healthy and full life is challenging for all of us, and everyone experiences times of struggle and challenge and the added stress and isolation of being a member of the LGBTQI within a heteronormative and often unsafe world, can make the harder things harder. It's crucial to know and have a therapist that is not only open and affirming but can also speak to the experience of being LGBTQI in a world that does not consistently have your interests or experiences in mind and often works intentionally to silence, shame and subdue you and your rights.

Cassandra Sissom
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC
You may have picked up negative messages about being different without even realizing it as a child. These outside attitudes can stick with you and lead to feelings of shame about who you are. Even as an adult, these childhood messages can affect how you see yourself and how you connect with others. I provide welcoming, safe, and supportive help for people looking to understand their identities, relationships, and the challenges they face. I create a safe and understanding environment where you can talk about things like coming out, family relationships, self-acceptance, discrimination, and mental health. Using proven methods and a strong awareness of LGBTQ+ experiences, I help clients deal with personal and social challenges, build strength, and feel comfortable being themselves. I want to help each client discover their strength, pride, and happiness on their journey.
