Queer, I Therapy Team

Therapy by and for LGBTQIA+ folks

The mission of our Queer, I team is to provide comprehensive, affordable, and inclusive mental health services to Queer folks by Queer folks. We strive to create a safe and supportive environment where individuals and their family members or partners can access the care they deserve, tailored to their unique experiences and needs. Our goal is to foster mental well-being, connection, authenticity, inclusivity, and empowerment within the Queer community, promoting a sense of belonging, resilience, and growth.

 

We see our team’s name as a metaphor. As our community is reclaiming and exploring all that queer can mean, we hope your therapeutic journey will empower you to reclaim and explore your own identities and the shape of your life, goals, and relationships.

Meet our team below—we work with couples, adults, and youth aged 8 and older. We are in-network with Aetna, Meritain, UMR, Continental, Cigna, Horizon, BCBS, Anthem, Empire, United Healthcare, Optum, Oxford, Medicare, Oscar, and 1199 plans. We offer daytime, evening, and weekend appointments.
