New Waverly Therapists specializing in Gender Identity

Ryan Pescaia

Are you tired of holding? Whether it's holding it all together, holding everything in, or holding on to hope, it's all exhausting. Of course you're feeling burnt out, isolated, or lost. I promise to accept you regardless of what you've done, how you've behaved, or your darkest thoughts. I'm an individual and relationship therapist, but specialize in the LGBT+ population, poor communication skills, anxiety/depression, and non-monogamous relationships.

Brent Armour

If you are seeking relationship therapy to foster growth, change, and spontaneity, I can help. If you are an individual with questions about identity, self-esteem, and self-actualization, I can help. If you are a member of a queer or gender-diverse community, or are considering that you may be, and need a therapeutic relationship that is affirming and supportive, I can help. My approach emphasizes a safe and welcoming space where you can explore your feelings and experiences without judgment.

Marcey Heschel

I work primarily with individuals and adolescents struggling with anxiety, self esteem, depression, LGBTQ+issues, highly sensitive people and empaths. I also work with couples and families as I believe that in order to best understand a client, I must also understand the family and system that they come from. I particularly love working with adolescents because I know first hand how tough those years can be.

Lacy Isenburg

Shame. Guilt. Anxiety. Depression. These are some of the most common issues and also the ones that are the most difficult to talk about and work through. They can be hurdles we have to overcome to reach our goals in life. Much of these issues surround the topic of sex, whether that be sexual orientation, gender identity, relationship dynamics, or religious experiences. My aim is to challenge stigmas and normalize sexual communication to manage all those negative thoughts and feelings.

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.

I specialize in premarital, marital, and relationship counseling in all stages of life. My clients are seeking support for a struggling marriage or simply want guidance to strengthen their connection. I also work with adults and teens (14+) facing individual struggles such as anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem to develop healthy coping skills, set boundaries and improve overall mental health. Ideally, my clients are looking for a freeing and transformative journey to a happier life.

Sidrah Khan

My clients are highly motivated adults ready to reflect on the past to change their future. This is the space to explore your identities and practice unmasking. Redefine or hone each aspect of you, including gender, sexuality, dis/ability, neurodivergence, racial, and career identities as well as your social identities (geek, emo, etc). When you feel more like yourself, you will feel safe to connect with others and build communities where you can exist authentically.

Katherine Traxler-LaFrance

With my therapeutic lens, I see the best in my clients. I see their strengths and where they are working to improve. I do my best to understand where they are coming from and meet them where they are. So when we have sessions together, know that you are getting someone who is on your side. Even in family or couples sessions, no one is the bad guy. The problem is the bad guy. We work as a team. We are all allies in tackling this conflict that is making you feel disconnected and frustrated.

I am passionate about working with the LGBTQQIA community. I have focused a significant amount of my schooling on working with LGBTQQIA couples and am extremely passionate about this area. I also focus on working preteens and teens that identify within the LGBTQQIA+ community.

Elizabeth Bolton

Whether or not they are preparing for a professional career, the artistic/aesthetic athletes I work with have a more complicated relationship with their body than their non-athletic peers and need that relationship to be at the top of their game. I also work with non-athletes teens and adults who are seeking peace in their relationships with food and their body, as we all deserve to have! I often say, "Nothing is too big, too small, or too weird to talk about in session".

Gena Sadler

I particularly specialize in complex trauma symptoms from growing up Neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ without a supportive system. This can look like being undiagnosed during childhood, growing up in an oppressive, religious environment, or living in a household with dysfunctional family dynamics. We connect your symptoms to any childhood wounds while shifting your perception of yourself and the world.

Dr. Nevine Sultan

Many clients come to me having tried traditional talk therapy unsuccessfully, seeking support with relationship issues, mood and anxiety concerns, grief, chronic pain, and trauma (including trauma related to unresolved childhood issues and damaging relationships). My trauma-informed, body-centered relational approach allows you to explore how you may be clinging to traumatic memories, to confront fear and self-doubt, to integrate disowned parts of yourself, and to release what is limiting you.

As a proud ally and member of the queer community, I specialize in therapy for diverse individuals and relationships.

I'm dedicated to supporting clients from all backgrounds on their unique journeys toward healing and self-discovery.

Are you wanting a better relationship but just do not know where to begin? Sometimes when a couple just verbalize each others perspectives, hearing something new may change how they interact and move forward. Having new tools to communicate and see your relationship help tremendously.

I specialize in working with clients who are struggling with trauma, boundaries, anxiety, relationship issues, & life transitions. Many of my clients identify as people-pleasers or express difficulty putting themselves first. Some feel they have lost themselves in their work or relations, or find themselves being their own worst critic. Together, we explore the past experiences, emotions, and thought patterns that may be getting in the way of living more authentically &aligned with their values.
