Many queer women and nonbinary individuals are trailblazers in the fields of mental health, sexual health, and collective wellness. As the LGBTQ+ community grows online, we have the ability to hold one another closer on multiple platforms, particularly in instances of social and political unease.

Here are some of the LGBTQ+ activists, organizers, and writers working in various health fields to support our community:

1. Eva Bloom’s Instagram handle asks a question that many queer folks might find familiar: what is my body doing? Through individual and community focused initiatives, Bloom, a nonbinary lesbian, seeks to help folks across the LGBTQ+ spectrum find answers. Addressing issues like confidence in one’s queerness, navigating queer relationships, and “late blooming”—coming out later in life—they are the recipient of Planned Parenthood Toronto’s award for Excellence in Sexuality Education, having used their voice and platform to educate over three million individuals globally. Follow them on Instagram.
2. Sara Glass (PhD, LCSW) grew up in a community where expressing queer desire was condemned and mental health struggles were not openly discussed. Now a psychotherapist living in New York City, Dr. Glass is openly passionate about supporting queer individuals grappling with trauma and mental health struggles. Her 2024 memoir, Kissing Girls on Shabbat, details her own personal experience growing up in a conservative Orthodox Jewish community, coming to terms with her queerness, and realizing her dream of becoming a therapist. Her specialties include trauma therapy, complex trauma and PTSD, anxiety, and art therapy. In addition to her work as a clinical director, she works with Jewish Queer Youth as a clinical supervisor. Follow her on Instagram.
3. Prentis Hemphill is a therapist and organizer. Having previously served as the Healing Director for the Black Lives Matter Global Network, they are also the founder of The Embodiment Institute, a social- and culturally-focused training center centered on organizational development. They are also the author of What It Takes to Heal: How Transforming Ourselves Can Change the World, a body-focused approach to collective healing and lasting social change. Follow them on Instagram.
4. Dr. Varuna Srinivasan’s (MBBS, MPH) writing on sexual health can be found in publications including Allure and Cosmopolitan. As a queer immigrant, Dr. Srinivasan is especially passionate about issues facing the broader LGBTQ+ South Asian community. She is an advocate for the bisexual community, with which she proudly identifies, sharing her personal journey coming out as bisexual after she married and as nonbinary three years later. She is the author of The Inclusive Insider, a newsletter published through Fluid Health. Every week, Srinivasan covers a new topic related to queer sexual health and wellness. Srinivasan also serves as an alumna committee member of Yale University’s Women’s Mental Health Conference. Follow her on Instagram.
5. Zoe Stoller (MSS, LSW) blends content creation across a variety of platforms with their background in social work. The founder of ZGStoller Consulting LLC, Stoller aims for stigma-free, open discussions of the intersections between mental health and the experiences of the LGBTQ+ community. Their posts focus on education and awareness, from the broad spectrum of gender and sexuality, to issues facing the broader community like health insurance, adoption, and gender-affirming care. Follow them on Instagram.
6. Casey Tanner is a queer sex therapist whose recently published debut, Feel It All, provides an insightful look into sexual health, wellness, and confidence through the lens of LGBTQ+ identities and relationships. They regularly engage with their broader community through their blog, SafeWord podcast, and their group therapy practice. Follow them on Instagram.
7. Mychelle Williams (LPC) specializes in harm reduction and trauma-informed care, particularly as it relates to LGBTQ+ individuals, people of color, and neurodivergent folks. Her private practice, Therapy to a Tea, is an individual and community focused approach that seeks to center the patient’s experience while transcending binary thinking and oppressive systems. The practice’s Donate From Your Overflow fundraising initiative works to crowdsource therapy funds for those in need of care. Follow them on Instagram.

These leaders and their work are instrumental not only in connecting a larger queer community around issues specific to our well-being; they also chart a course for a more inclusive and healthy future.
