LGBT Issues
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
LGBTQ+ issues are ones which are close to my heart as I am a gay-identified man. LGBTQ+ individuals share many unique experiences due to their sexual orientation and gender identity. The symptoms that result from those experience are often more accurately understood by a psychologist who has shared in those experiences. This understanding facilitates greater affirmation and validation of your needs, along with designing a more effective approach to achieve your desired symptom relief. Helping people in our LGBTQ+ community is one of the primary reasons I decided to become a psychologist.

Gabrielle Crowe
Pre-Licensed Professional, NCC, Resident in Counseling
I offer an affirming space where LGBTQIA+ clients can explore identity and navigate complicated dynamics with family and other relationships. We process complex emotions around who you are, how you want to live out your life, and how to deal with the obstacles that affect you specifically. Together, we will explore the influence of your intersectional identities and ways to increase rest, joy, and radical self-acceptance. I deeply value each client as the expert on their own experiences, and work collaboratively within their values to achieve more authentic and fulfilling life.

Jamie Pettus
Psychologist, PsyD
I have worked with LGBTQIA+ clients for around 20 years, and am a member of this community, as I identify as both a lesbian and as gender nonconforming. I have worked with many clients who identified as transgender or gender variant.

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.
