LGBTQ+ Therapy — Chicago Loop — Every Identity Welcome
In-person sessions at Michigan and Wacker for people who want more than coping. In-network with BCBS, Aetna, and United.
THERAPY SHOULD CHANGE
MORE THAN YOUR MOOD
You may be the one who holds it together, reads the pattern fast, and still ends up in the same place. Functional. Capable. Still hitting the same ceiling.
Some arrive exhausted by pressure and overthinking. Others carrying grief, uncertainty, or a life that no longer fits. What they share is a readiness for therapy that does more than understand them.
If you have been searching for a queer therapist in Chicago who actually gets it — you found one.
Why 'Queer Talk'?
Our method works from a perspective of liberation, not just feeling better. Whether you’re LGBTQ+, an ally, or just built different, the approach is the same: liberatory, dynamic, deeply human, and alive — here to help you move toward who you actually are.
THE QUEER TALK METHOD
This therapy moves,
and it does not flinch.
Clinically sharp. Culturally fluent. Grounded and alive.
Built from the inside of queer life. Not adapted to it.
CLINICALLY SHARP
We don’t circle patterns. We work them until they change. Press in when avoidance takes over. Stay with the language until it lands.
CULTURALLY FLUENT
You are not teaching your life in this room. We start where you actually live. No translation required.
GROUNDED AND ALIVE
This work is direct, curious, and deliberately human. We leave nothing on the floor.
TROY JOHNSON, LCSW
Therapy with a
point of view.
This is the practice I needed and could not find, so I built it. No translations. No performing your identity just to be understood. Queer Talk exists because our community deserves care that starts with context, not care that asks you to provide it first. It is an act of advocacy as much as a clinical practice.
WHAT BRINGS YOU IN?
Queer-centered therapy for people, relationships, and lives that do not fit the usual mold.
Therapy for polyamory, ENM, and relationships that need more than a communication lecture.
