Brielle Layden
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
It is my sincere belief that everyone is entitled to a safe, supportive space. Many of my clients are transgender, gender non-conforming and nonbinary, and LGBQ+ identified adult individuals. I work with my clients to understand and explore how their presenting problems (ie anxiety, depression, self image) are influenced by gender identity and sexuality.

Dr. Mike Abrams
Psychologist, PhD, MBA, ABPP
I was among the first psychologists to volunteer to counsel with people with AIDS beginning in 1986. In addition, my years of collaboration with people of all sexualities and gender identities have encouraged me to strongly view all sexualities as equally valid. However, I also understand that one's sexual and gender role plays a major role in the therapeutic process. I understand and have conducted research on the unique therapeutic needs of people with sexualities that are often marginalized.
