At Webster Clinic, Dr. Webster’s clinical focus is identity development and complex presentations at the intersection of anxiety, mood, ADHD, trauma, sexuality, gender, and culture. He offers culturally responsive, LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC affirming care and has particular expertise in queer parenthood, sexual health, cultural curiosity, sexual and gender diverse youth, and professionals of color, and families navigating migration and intercultural transitions. He welcomes collaboration with pediatric and specialty teams. He regularly consults with schools, universities, and organizations on race, sexual identity, and minority stress, and he founded Webster Clinic as a non-insurance Boston psychiatry and psychotherapy practice designed for in-depth, continuity-oriented care.
