Ed Stern
Owner and practitioner at Queer Ear Mental Health. Serving DC MD and VA (virtual and in person). We offer psychiatric medication management and integrated therapy services to members of the LGBTQIA+ community. We take most commercial insurance. I have over 20 years of clinical experience, and chose to open this practice in 2021 after seeing how our community to mistreated clinically and personally. All of our providers are part of the community and all of our staff have lived experience in the community. Here you will not have to explain yourself. (Side note, Queer Ear Mental Health operates at NothingBetter Health on all documentation in order to help maintain your privacy and not "out" you, if that's a concern.)
