Highland Park Therapists specializing in LGBTQ Issues

Osvaldo Alcaraz

Maybe you’ve been exploring your queerness, questioning whether you might be neurodivergent, or facing internal conflict between how you identify and its intersectionality with your familial, cultural, and/or religious values. Perhaps you’ve experienced religious trauma and are looking to incorporate religion back into your life. No matter what you find yourself navigating, I’m here, I’m queer, and I’m glad you found me.

Paige Harper

I enjoy working with clients on relationship issues, anxiety, adjustment, trauma, and with members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I welcome the opportunity to work with individuals, teens, couples, families, and children. My history working in community health settings with children experiencing behavioral issues and developmental disorders continues to inform my practice as a clinician. I have worked closely with families undergoing lifestyle transitions and young adults entering college.

Our clients present with a variety of concerns including depression, anxiety, disordered eating, body image concerns, OCD, relationship challenges, navigating life transitions, immigration/first generation experiences, identity exploration, and issues related to neurodivergence.

I love working with gender diverse adolescents, queer and questioning folks, and young adults navigating life transitions. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed by their responsibilities and disconnected from their communities.

Ali Siewert

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

Andrew Sutherland

Therapy can be helpful as you navigate life’s everyday stressors, a difficult part of your history, past or ongoing trauma, or any feelings or circumstances that cause you pain or suffering. Therapy can also help you learn self-trust, build loving relationships, find ease in your mind and body, and move towards a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.

Are you looking to make changes and feel overwhelmed with knowing how or where to start? Are you needing help in navigating the symptoms and challenges that have been making it hard to engage with your life, others, and the world in the way you want? It is my privilege to provide a reliable and nonjudgmental space for these processes or if you just need to be listened to about whatever is coming up in your inner and outer worlds whether that be anxiety, depression, relationship/intimacy issues.

Casey Tangonan

I am passionate about working with BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and gender-expansive clients. If you are seeking a place to work through depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues, body image issues, or general "stuckness," I am here to provide a safe, judgment-free environment for you to explore your capacity for healing and growth.

Anna Fredrick

Are you going through a life transition and need support with managing all the changes going on in your life? That might be changes in school, work, family, parenting or relationships. Or even a quarter-life crisis spent navigating new and old relationships. I'm here to support you in processing these changes as well as recognizing your own strengths to draw from during periods of change. I believe that everyone needs someone to support them - and challenge them - to get through these times.

Mia Dal Santo

Are you someone who is looking for help or support in your non-traditional relationship structure or sexuality? Are you struggling to feel seen or heard in these identities? As a relational therapist, I recognize that our connections with others are the basis of both the greatest struggles and the greatest rewards we can know. I desire to work with people who are seeking to flesh out their sense of identity and strengths, and through doing so, relate to others more authentically and skillfully.

Stef Stone

I specialize in working with members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community who are looking to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships. Many of my clients come to therapy to process grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, impulse control, gender identity, sexuality, and sexual health.

Ginny Chesson

I welcome anyone who is having a hard time and hoping that things can be easier, but am especially suited to work with people with big feelings, people who exist outside of the gender binary, queer people in general, people who are angry or heartbroken about the state of the world, and people who have always felt like they don't quite fit.

Laura Kelly

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or misunderstood? If so, I would love to offer you a comfortable (virtual) space in which to get support. I enjoy working with people who are exploring neurodivergence (particularly autism and ADHD), gender identity, sexual orientation, or body image. I also connect well with people who are experiencing major life changes, chronic health conditions, or who are struggling with relationships and boundaries.

Andrew Bingman

Many of my clients struggle to be vulnerable in relationships, due to the belief that they will experience rejection if they allow others to see their true selves. My promise is to see, hear, and understand each part of you, especially the parts that you are afraid to show others. In particular, I am passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ clients, especially gay men struggling to overcome internalized homophobia. I also work well with individuals wanting to process early childhood experiences.

Amy Bicknell

When we feel most overwhelmed and stressed, we often find it difficult to prioritize what we value most. Our interests, our commitments, and the relationships most important to us often suffer when we are suffering and struggling to show up. Therapy can offer us a space to reconnect with ourselves, and find a sense of peace and calm, allowing us to move closer to the people and areas of our lives we want. Therapy can help us enjoy life again the way we once used to.

Anna Valianos

I provide trauma-focused individual and group therapy for adults. Typical concerns of the people I work with include managing the effects of traumatic experiences, relationship issues, intense emotions, and grief. Areas of special focus include supporting survivors of sexual violence and adults healing from the effects of child abuse and relational trauma in their families of origin including sexual abuse, incest, neglect, and intimate partner violence.

Online Therapy

Sam Abboud

I support adult individuals and couples through challenges associated with anxiety, depression, masculinity, mixed-race identity, life transitions, self-esteem, communication, and relationship functioning. Though I see myself as an active participant in your therapeutic journey, I aim to provide you with the space to take ownership of your healing. In other words, we will work at your pace to better understand what makes you the person you are today.

Online Therapy

Bernadette Kelly

I specialize in supporting people with marginalized sexualities and relationships, including kink/BDSM, polyamory, ethical non-monogamy, and general concerns with sex / sexual desire. I understand how strong the shame can be here; my main priority is making sure you feel deeply heard, understood, and accepted. Not just by me, but by all parts of yourself as well. My hope is to help clients fully integrate these parts, even (and especially) the hidden ones.
