Kate LeMay MA, LAMFT
About Kate
Therapy is a healing modality that uses authentic and collaborative relationships between therapist and client to promote change. I hope to co-create a space that feels safe and supportive to experience the mess and beauty of being fully human. My interests include complex/developmental trauma, grief and loss, and all things gender and sexuality. I enjoy working with couples, other relational configurations, and individuals. My practice is inclusive and affirming of LGBTQIA+ folks and people who live outside of traditional societal norms for sexual and romantic relationships. I am affirming of kink, ENM, polyamory, body neutral/HAES, and sex worker identities. I’m currently under the supervision of Jessi Leader, LMFT, as I work toward full licensure.

About Libby
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with eight years of experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults. My practice is trauma-focused, and I strive to create a safe and compassionate space where healing and growth can take place.
I am a lesbian and proud parent of a trans young person. My focus is on working with people who identify as LGBTQ+. Before becoming a social worker, I spent ten years living and working in Mexico on social justice initiatives with women in rural areas. That experience continues to shape the way I approach therapy—with deep respect for resilience, cultural context, and community.

I believe that everyone is the expert of their own lives and that is reflected in an egalitarian approach to the therapeutic relationship. I aim to create a warm, inviting, and safe space where you feel you can be your true self.
I have a special interest in working with communities who have felt that they have not been welcome in traditional therapy spaces. This includes members of the LGBTQIA+, kink, non-monogamous, disabled/chronically ill communities and BIPOC individuals. I look forward to meeting you!

Cloud Erickson, MSW, LGSW
About Cloud
“I enjoy working with individuals around the themes and intersections of autism and neurodiversity, disability, gender, sexuality and kink, consensual non monogamy, spirituality, anxiety and depression, self-worth, and the many ways we construct meaning in life.
I bring curiosity, non-judgmental presence, sex-positivity, radical acceptance, and laughter towards my social work and therapeutic praxis. I believe therapy and social work are inherently political and work to make clear both the power I hold in the therapeutic relationship and support you in finding ways to navigate the oppression in which we all live and breathe. Ultimately, I hope we can discover how to get curious with your emotions and meet them with compassion, curiosity, and understanding instead of judgment. I adamantly believe you are already enough and it is my deep joy and privilege to accompany clients while they grow in self compassion and abandon emotional cleanliness for emotional authenticity.
My approach to therapy draws from a variety of sources, but particularly client centered therapy (Rogerian therapy) and narrative therapy. Though I also draw heavily from polyvagal theory and somatic and mindfulness based approaches, existential therapy and humanistic thought, and emotion focused therapy. I hold all these in conversations with movements important to my life such as the trans, sexual, and fat liberation movements as well as feminism and disability justice.
I identify as a white, fat, queer, genderqueer and trans femme/woman, and neurodivergent therapist.

Daniel Mrotek, MA, LPCC
About Daniel
The human experience can be a complex and confusing burden to exist within at times. We can lose confidence in trusting ourselves, in the choices we make, in understanding our thoughts and feelings, and while navigating all sorts of relationships. I know this all too well, and I am sure you can relate to some degree. I identify as a gay/queer cisgender male, as an addict/alcoholic in long-term recovery, and as a therapist with over 15 years of experience in the mental health profession. I have had the privilege to work with people from all walks of life over those years. And I would be honored to share space and provide guidance while you traverse your own life’s highs, lows, and everything in between.

Michi Marks, BS, Practicum Therapist
About Michi
I see therapy as a space to explore the soul—the questions of who we are, how we belong, and how we want to live. My work is especially with people who feel caught between worlds—culturally, relationally, or within themselves. I support individuals and partners exploring identity, intimacy, trauma, and life transitions, often drawing on Brainspotting, sex therapy, parts work, and somatic practices that help you listen to and regulate your nervous system.
My style is both playful and grounding, with room for humor, curiosity, and depth. Healing, to me, is a spiral—each step bringing more clarity, compassion, and capacity. You don’t have to do it alone; we’ll move at your pace.

Mollie Wetherall, LICSW
About Mollie
Hi! I’m a somatic practitioner who is passionate about supporting people on their healing journey and meeting people where they’re at. I believe that trauma healing need not have us feel worse in order to feel better. Ease and curiosity resources the nervous system and supports us getting present. This is a way of saying, when it feels right, I support therapy being weird, playful, and even silly! When we feel like ourselves, healing comes naturally.
My approach draws on my psychodynamic training, as well as my ongoing training as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. I specialize in trauma treatment with disabled, neurodivergent, queer, trans, and polyamorous people. My therapeutic work is grounded in my experiences as an organizer as well as theories of collective liberation (such as decolonization and disability justice). I’m passionate about working with the aforementioned communities, as well as healthcare workers, organizers, and anybody working with burnout or moral injury.

About Julia
Wow, being a human and having a body is such a wild and magical experience. You deserve to be supported, respected, and seen for your full humanity, all you have been, all you will be, and all you are in this moment.
I believe and have seen evidence that change is made through relationship and interpersonal connection. Together, we will work to build a therapeutic relationship in the service of your wellbeing. My intention is to facilitate a connection through gentle care, challenge, humor, and tenderness that will support you in bringing alignment and congruence to your values.

Skye Butler, MA, LAMFT
About Skye
My super power as a therapist is my ability to be as human as possible with my clients, I make mistakes, you will make mistakes and all that is ok! We can work together on being comfortable with that reality. you have permission to be human, imperfect, and vulnerable without shame, judgment, or guilt.
As a fat, queer, disabled, neurodivergent, witchy, anti-capitalist person, my approach to this work is informed by my values in anti-racism, anti-capitalism, queerness and intersectional feminist theory, fat liberation, and disability justice. Our work together will keep things in mind and be trauma-informed, collaborative, sex-positive, and systemic in its approach.
If I am not doing therapy, you can find me at concerts head banging, cuddling and annoying my cats, learning and collecting crystals and herbs, or binge watching anime.

Tiffani DeWitt, BS
About Tiffani
I have seen firsthand the impact that can be made when there is someone who will listen and guide us through some of the most trying and overwhelming moments of our lives. This is one of the many reasons I am passionate about doing trauma work. In my personal and professional opinion, we all experience varying degrees of trauma throughout our lifetimes, and it is crucial, yet oh so difficult sometimes, to face those traumas so they do not continue to inflict pain upon us. I recognize and honor the courage and vulnerability it takes to reach out and take those steps toward healing, just know you aren’t doing it alone. Let’s work together to find your power and rewrite your story.

Maggie Nelon, M.A., LAMFT
About Maggie
I believe we are shaped by the relationships, systems and communities that we are a part of. Within these spaces we experience profound pain, but we can also experience incredible repair, connection, healing and attunement with our own bodyminds and those around us.
My role as a systemic therapist is to co-create a container with you to identify your values, reflect on patterns that are serving/no longer serving you and assist you in re-authoring the narratives and themes of your life moving forward. I approach my work through a trauma-responsive, sex-positive and kink-aware lens. Clients have described my style as collaborative, grounded, warm and compassionate.
I have experience working with queer, kinky, neurodiverse and disabled folks. I enjoy assisting folks who are navigating anxiety, depression, identity exploration, relationship challenges/changes, non-monogamy, kink, sexuality, spirituality, trauma and adjusting to life’s stressors.
A bit about me: I am a white, queer, neurodivergent and disabled pansexual person who was born/raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. In my spare time I enjoy being in/near large bodies of water, reading tarot, dancing and snuggling with my cat and dog while watching documentaries.
I am working under the supervision of Leisha Suggs, LMFT.

About Leisha
Hey Folks I’m Leisha, I have Advanced training in Somatic Experiening and use polyvagal theory and somatics as well as touches of Narrative to provide support for my clients. I enjoy seeing fellow queer folks, nerds, Black and other folks of color, kinky folks, and really anyone considering themselves to be different or weird! Relationally, I love supporting couples and parts of polycules, consider my work to be harm-reduction based across all issues, and deeply transparent and consent based. I enjoy videogames, anime, wish I was better at DnD and have 3 cats who moonlight as ninjas.

June Rusch, MS, LMFT-IT
About June
Hi, I’m June and I believe each person in this world has the right to be human, imperfect, and vulnerable without shame or prejudice. In my opinion, the therapy room should be a place where all subjects can be safely discussed, while also being an affirming and collaborative space where we can work through your challenges together to help you live your most authentic life.
I love working with couples, families, and individuals in areas such as polyamory, boundaries and boundary setting, personal power, gender identity, sex and sexuality, kink exploration, anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, and anything else that affects our ability to be ourselves. I am a body-positive, queer, neurodivergent, wonderful person. My approach to this work is continuously informed by my values in anti-racism, anti-capitalism, queer and intersectional feminist theory, and body liberation.

Aryn Katterjohn, MA
About Aryn
I believe that everything you need to heal and live as the best version of yourself already resides within you. You are the expert of your own experiences, and I aim to create a safe space where you can explore those experiences, emotions, and trauma without judgement. As a queer, fat, disabled, nonbinary lesbian, I take an empathetic, relaxed, collaborative approach to therapy that is deeply influenced by social justice, anti-racism, fat liberation, and disability justice. I have particular interest in working with folx who have done the work in therapy before and are ready to dive deeper into identity exploration through a trauma-informed lens. I am currently working under the supervision of Mark Reese, MA, LMFT.

Anna Dowson, MS, LMFT
About Anna
I specialize in helping couples, families, and other kinds of relationships repair after ruptures, find harmony, and figure out how to make sustainable, enjoyable changes in their lives. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and family dynamics (such as parent-adult children and adult sibling relationships). I help folks get unstuck by identifying unhelpful patterns, exploring stuckness, and helping people learn new ways of connecting to one another.
My clinical lens is systemic, which means that I am uniquely trained to acknowledge the multitude of complex layers and dynamics inherent to every identity, individual, and by extension, relationship. I offer realistic feedback and gentle challenges from a non-judgmental, intersectional, and collaborative place.
Starting the search for a therapist is a hard part of the process. I hope to make that process easier by offering a video consultation so we can say hi and get acquainted. Trust, authenticity, and shared commitment are important components of a solid therapeutic alliance and I believe all of that starts with an intro video call. I am best reached via email.

Christopher Wlaschin MSW, LICSW
About Christopher
“There’s so much healing to do—especially in these times of cultural and political upheaval. We are born with a deep need to belong: to be seen, held, and loved just as we are. However, when pain takes root early, it can reverberate throughout our lives, straining relationships, disrupting our sense of self, and blurring the clarity we carry within.
Healing begins in the presence of compassion and connection. Even the most loving parents may not have had the resources to nurture our emotional development, leaving us to navigate adulthood alone without the tools for wholeness. In therapy, we create a space to gently tend those early wounds, reclaim emotional maturity, and allow new ways of relating to self, others, and the world to emerge.
I offer a holistic, relational, and body-centered approach to therapy grounded in curiosity and care. My work draws from two decades of experience supporting individuals and groups through trauma, neurodivergence, severe and persistent mental illness, substance use, and the complexities of identity. I especially welcome LGBTQ+, BIPOC, immigrant, and neurodivergent teens and adults seeking deeper healing and authentic connection.
As a certified Brainspotting practitioner, I support clients in attuning to their bodies and intuition to process trauma and reconnect with their true selves. My approach is integrative and transpersonal, tailored to meet each client where they are in their healing journey. I may draw on developmental theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Buddhist psychology, trauma theory, psychoeducation, and somatic practices, always considering what the mind, body, and spirit need to heal. For neurodivergent clients, I bring a social justice lens to enhance the depth and safety of our work together.
My style is warm, relational, and direct. I am deeply committed to anti-oppression practice and to working across cultures, identities, and gender expressions. Healing isn’t just personal—it’s collective and based in community. I believe in creating space for the wisdom, resilience, and transformation that emerge when we’re truly met.
Outside of my therapy practice, I find inspiration in live music, art, gardening, and long bike rides. I’m a dedicated bike commuter and advocate for just, inclusive transportation systems that serve all people.

Shawna Wells, BA
About Shawna
I have found that our connections to one another, our loved ones, and nature are at the heart of healing and joy. I offer a warm, safe, affirming space where you can feel seen, understood, and emotionally held. I trust in everyone’s innate capacity to heal, even when it is incredibly hard and it is my honor to be a witness and guide on your journey towards your goals. I’m an intersectional feminist who brings witchy, hippie, queer, cat-loving, nerdy energy into the therapy space. Additionally, I offer Ecotherapy, integrating nature into the healing process with my clients as well.

My approach draws from narrative therapy, IFS, EFT, somatic, and solution-focused modalities.

Bex Wilde, LMFT
About Bex
I view life as story and the process of therapy as understanding and rewriting our stories. It can be difficult to create our own unique stories in a world that is constantly telling us who we should (or shouldn’t) be. My goal is to help you discover what is and what is not working for you in your current story and support the cultivation of new possibilities alongside you. You are capable of writing stories that help you live as your most wild, healed, and authentic self. I take a gentle, compassionate, humorous and collaborative approach to working with clients.

Rachel Mickelson, LMFT, CYT
About Rachel
I believe the therapeutic relationship is the cornerstone of positive change in therapy. My practice centers on collaborative co-creation with individuals and couples. Together, we’ll identify and release patterns that no longer serve you and discover new ways to nurture deeper connections with yourself and your partner. You’ll find a warm, calm, nonjudgmental space to support your exploration.
I use a systemic, non-pathologizing, trauma-informed lens that considers family, culture, race, gender, sexuality, and spirituality. I specialize in sex therapy, communication, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My practice is inclusive and affirming of all identities and relationship structures.

Ryan Jaeger, MA
About Ryan
I’m a self-identified queerdo who embraces (and welcomes) their own weirdness and eccentricity. As a mental health practitioner, I strongly believe in the power of human connection through empathic listening, collaboration, and the occasional dose of well-intentioned humor. I utilize a systemic and existential lens to examine the ways in which we are affected by the systems we belong to (e.g., relationships, community, society). My work is also influenced by my lived experience with ADHD.

Finch M. Houdek, MS, LMFT-IT
About Finch
In a world that demands oppressed people remain quiet, small, and inoffensive, I believe recovery and joy are radical acts of resistance. I became a therapist because I wanted to offer others the support I received in the past when I most needed it, particularly queer, trans and non-binary, disabled, neurodivergent, fat, non-monogamous, and BDSM-kink-fetish communities. In therapy with me, you can trust that I will hold both your pain and your victories with the reverence and care they deserve and honor you as an expert in your own lived experiences. I specialize in working with sex and pleasure, gender identity, and partners and families.

Coltan J. Schoenike, MS, LMFT (WI), LAMFT (MN), CST
About Coltan
I’m so excited to be here at Edges Wellness and am beyond thrilled to work alongside the many fabulous clinicians here! I entered this field because I felt, and continue to believe, that everything in our lives is connected and intertwined, with our experiences shaping us for better or worse. Humans are relational beings, and our connection to others, whether it is our families, friends, lovers, coworkers, and the like, continues to have impact on our lives until the end of our days. I think everyone can benefit from therapy, and as a therapist, I look forward to our relationship as one that can have a positive, beneficial impact on your life. In our work together, I believe you can expect a warm, affirming space where you feel respected, heard, and understood.
As a queer, transgender, and nonbinary person, I’ve come to appreciate the beautiful diversity of human experience. Taking that appreciation into my therapy work, I value the wide breadth of tools and strategies at our disposal that will allow our approaches to be custom-tailored to the needs of the client I’m working with. My personal approach as a therapist is informed by my background and experience in advocacy and social justice work. At the end of the day, I hope that if my work were to be described in one word, it would be “”affirming.”” On the note of affirming, my training as well as my experiences as a queer and transgender person have given me a special interest in working with clients who identify as LGBTQIA+, are questioning their gender or sexual orientation, or are practicing (or looking to practice) polyamory or kink in their relationships.

Nikki Real, MA
About Nikki
Hi, I’m Nikki and I believe in the power of storytelling and the inherent wisdom of our embodied experiences. Each person in this world is an expert in their own life and you have permission to be human, imperfect, and vulnerable without shame. I see therapy as a collaborative, liberatory practice for us to discover, understand, nurture, and develop your authentic stories and selves. I dream of co-creating a space where we can connect, explore, try new things, and develop functional therapeutic practice for your life together. I hope to help you find a soft spaciousness within yourself that feels connected to who you are and the values you hold.
My therapy style is centered in Experiential Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Internal Family Systems. I am also a Brainspotting practitioner. As a fat, queer, disabled, neurodivergent, nonbinary person, my approach to this work is continuously informed by my values in anti-racism, anti-capitalism, queer and intersectional feminist theory, fat liberation, and disability justice. Our work together will be trauma-informed, collaborative, sex-positive, and systemic in its approach. If you think that we would make a good match, I look forward to hearing from you!

About Claire
I believe that people are the experts of their own lives and deserve spaces where they feel seen, heard, and affirmed. Healing happens when we consider the whole person—including our cultures, identities, and the experiences that have shaped who we are today. I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ adolescents and adults, couples, and families, and my practice is sex-positive and honors diverse identities including non-monogamous and polyamorous relationship structures. I welcome clients navigating anxiety, depression, grief, identity, body image, life transitions, and/or developmental trauma. Curiosity, humor, and compassion are central to my work, and I offer a collaborative space where you are encouraged to show up as your authentic self each and every day.

Kaj Benson, LMFT
About Kaj
I know that you’re doing your best with the tools available. Therapy can support you in building more nourishing patterns, as well as crafting a narrative about your life that prioritizes agency and hope. My caseload tends to be: queer/trans people; trauma survivors; disabled and/or neurodivergent people; nonnormative relational orientations/structures; and marginalized religious/spiritual communities. I center these frameworks in my practice: somatic abolition, decolonization, self-compassion, and queer theory. I am trained in Somatic Experiencing.

About Lora
Healing is part of human nature, and we are all in a constant process of growth, trying to become the best versions of ourselves. sometimes healing feels stuck or doesn’t happen as quickly as we want it to, or sometimes we don’t feel like ourselves and can’t quite pinpoint why. these are times when it is important to ask for help.

James Bovino, MA
About James
You are the expert on your life and the significance of your own experiences; in the therapeutic relationship, it is your values and goals that are most important. We each have a right to self-determination and life satisfaction and already have the internal tools to create the life we want. I see the human experience in the context of specific biological, social, and historical systems and that the current social configuration is oppressive, privileging whiteness, heterosexuality, cis-genderism, wealth and capitalistic thinking. Relational therapy can be a tool of human liberation, and that authentic, mutually empathetic relationships can integrate us with our truest selves and help us to find purpose in our communities.

Alessandra Gaglio, MA, LAMFT
About Alessandra
In therapy I value collaboration, humor, and compassion. I believe in a holistic approach where we consider you not as a diagnosis or set of symptoms, but as a whole, complex, capable human being. You are the expert in your own life– in our work I will strive to provide support, reflection, and camaraderie as you seek out a life that fulfills you.
As a therapist and as a person, I take the implications of the social, political, and cultural contexts in which we live seriously. I have experience working with complex trauma and PTSD as well as those with traditionally marginalized identities.
As a chronically ill and disabled therapist, I deeply appreciate working with folks on the complexities of living with illness and disability in this society. I also have experience supporting polyamorous and non-monogamous dynamics as well as BDSM and kink practices.
When I’m not in the office, I enjoy reading, biking in the sunshine, and playing video games. I am working under the supervision of Leisha Suggs, LMFT.

About Mason

I am a parent, budgeting nerd, and former chemist and process engineer turned therapist. I bring my systemic thinking to help you identify the areas in your life keeping you stuck. I value client autonomy and empowerment and want to collaborate with you to find the right path forward. I love working with LGBTQ+ folks, neurodivergent folks, and their families; and no topic is off-limits. Bring your financial anxiety, identity exploration, sexual concerns, or anything else, and we will figure out your next steps together.

Dale S.E. Mueller, MA
About Dale
I specialize in working with clients in the LGBTQIA+, aging, neurodivergent, nonmonogamous, and/or chronically ill communities around issues of identity, dysphoria, relational issues, trauma, disordered eating, grief, and self-worth. I am grounded in gender-affirming, anti-racist, anti-ablest, body-neutral, decolonial frameworks which allow us to reframe and decenter oppressive systems and internalized shame. These values, experiences, and theoretical frameworks support my goals to support clients in building trust and acceptance within themselves and promote healing and wellbeing which affirms their intersectional identities, experiences, and strengths. My role as a therapist is to meet each client where they’re at, facilitate a safe space of acceptance, reflection, and healing.

About Ezra
I love working with queer and trans folks, neurodivergent individuals, trauma survivors, and anyone who finds themselves questioning or living outside the norm. In my work with clients, I listen deeply, ask thoughtful questions, and support you in clarifying your goals. Then we’ll work together to build on your strengths, grow skills for managing challenges, and work to create a life worth living!
In my free time I enjoy cooking, gardening, making zines, and enjoying the great outdoors!
