As an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, I offer a warm, inclusive, and judgment-free space where you can feel comfortable being fully yourself. I understand that navigating identity, relationships, family dynamics, and life transitions can bring unique challenges. My goal is to listen without judgment, help you feel understood, and support you in exploring what matters most to you while moving toward greater self-acceptance and fulfillment.

Noosh Soleimani

I'm a therapist with a Doctorate in Psychology who has specialized in supporting LGBTQ+ clients since 2011. I work with individuals across the gender and sexuality spectrum, with particular focus on gender dysphoria, coming out, and gay/bisexual identity exploration. My approach weaves together ACT, CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based therapy within a deeply affirming, culturally competent framework—never one-size-fits-all. Clients come to me for a space where their whole personhood is respected, and for practical tools to build resilience, clarity, and self-compassion. Together, we'll navigate identity, transition, and life's challenges at your pace. Online sessions available.

James W Chavers

Under the larger umbrella of the LGBTQ+ population I focus on issues related to gender identity, dissociation, the intersectionality of race and gender, inter-cultural challenges (migrants, immigrants, expats, repats) , as well as sex therapy from an inclusive perspective.

Trevor Schultz

As a psychologist who specializes with the LBGTQ population, I provide a safe and inclusive space for individuals of all sexual orientations and gender identities.

Lisa Talerico

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Los Angeles, California, with over 13 years of experience serving the LGBTQ+ community and beyond. Much of my career has been rooted in community-based care. I spent eight years at the Los Angeles LGBT Center — the largest LGBTQ+ health organization in the world — where I deepened my commitment to affirming, culturally responsive therapy. I have also had the privilege of teaching at my graduate alma mater, Pepperdine University, and consulting on a range of mental health-related projects that continue to shape my approach to this work. My practice is grounded primarily in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), a framework I have found to be one of the most practical and effective tools available.
