Hughson Therapists specializing in Gender Identity

Juan Carlos Zepeda

You may feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, disconnected from yourself or others, or weighed down by past experiences. You seek deeper awareness, relief from emotional burdens, and a greater sense of connection and ease. Whether you're navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, relationship challenges, or identity exploration, therapy can be a space to process, integrate, and reclaim what has felt lost or out of reach.

Rachel Coen

My clients come to therapy because they want to make changes but feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsupported. They often identify as women, LGBTQIA+, and/or neurodivergent, and may be navigating issues like: disabilities; chronic health conditions; life transitions; career changes; seeking work-life balance in demanding careers; and exploring identity and meaning. If you often feel like an outsider, struggle to accept yourself, or are just plain struggling, let's connect - you deserve support.

I have seen therapy change lives dramatically yet seeking help can often be difficult. My clients are working on self-esteem issues, gender identity, parenting skills, relationships, life transitions, anxiety, depression, suicide ideation and self-harm. It’s hard to trust a therapist with your story and your past. I invite you to take a brave step for yourself and discover your new path.

Chelsie Crilly

My clients typically feel like they are “too much”, their emotions are “too big”, and they are “too sensitive”. I invite clients to alter their thinking and believe they are “enough” through a variety of approaches (see “my approach”). My clients are usually seeking treatment in order to increase their ability to “swim in the sea of emotions”, improve relationships with loved ones, and improve executive functioning skills (such as time management, accomplishing their to-do-list, ect).

Lacey Xepoleas

My ideal client is someone who has “tried it all.” Someone who feels that life is already hard enough and wants to work towards lasting, fulfilling change through deep, explorative work. Someone who is open to change (and recognizes how hard it actually is) and is willing to practice self-compassion and kindness to achieve the goals they want.

Dr. Kimberly Diorio

With a liberation psychology lens, I welcome the opportunity to safely explore and work with all people regardless of social location. A therapist is not here to tell you what to do but to help you uncover the hidden barriers that keep you immobilized and explore new perspectives and possibilities. Together, we can work through your challenges and find a path to healing and growth. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I am here to support you every step of the way.

I work with couples, adults, and teens who are LGBTQIA+ and/or BIPOC folks. Some themes I love working with include grief, relationships, life transitions, boundaries, anxiety, and depression. Integration of altered states of consciousness, exploration of intersectional identities and intergenerational trauma are also common themes in my practice.

Our clients are individuals who may be hesitant to begin therapy, but after meeting during a free consultation, they quickly recognize the benefits of meeting with one of our experienced, compassionate, and open minded therapists. Many individuals we meet with have had experiences with anxiety, stress, depression, difficulties in relationships and at work, and have experienced trauma at some point in their lives.

My clients tend to struggle with feeling stuck, overwhelmed by their thoughts and feelings, and trouble communicating regarding needs. Often they have trouble sleeping or unwinding or have pressures of being "perfect". They may also be afraid to take chances, be genuine in relationships, and seek out opportunities and sex they deserve. I enjoy working with those struggling with issues related anxiety, trauma, am LGTQI affirming, sex positive.

Yelena Blank

Are you very good at "holding it together" but never giving yourself space to just be? Have you learned to avoid challenging emotions as a way of coping with them, but not to actually process? Do you find yourself tossing and turning at night as all those thoughts you've been holding at bay come flooding in? We can work on that. Anxiety, insomnia, trauma -- all of these have effective treatments that can help you take the space you need to actually heal.

Are you struggling with anxiety? Do you feel exhausted and drained? Do you feel like you are ignoring or hiding parts of yourself in order to survive? There are times in our lives when we feel burnt out and have lost sight of our purpose. I believe these times are an open invitation for you to explore what is going on within you that is getting in the way of you being your most genuine, productive and effective self. I am here to help.
