Services
Individual Therapy
Tailored mental health support for LGBTQIA+ individuals addressing trauma, anxiety, depression, and identity exploration. Our therapists use evidence-based approaches like CBT and somatic therapies to help clients build self-compassion and break harmful patterns. Sessions focus on creating safe spaces for self-discovery and healing from discrimination or internalized shame. Clients work with queer-identified therapists who understand unique community challenges without requiring education about their identities.
Couples Counseling
Specialized relationship support for LGBTQIA+ couples navigating communication challenges, intimacy issues, or life transitions. Therapists employ the Gottman Method and attachment theory to strengthen relational bonds while addressing unique stressors faced by queer and trans partners. Sessions address both monogamous and polyamorous dynamics, helping couples develop conflict resolution skills and maintain connection through gender transitions or societal pressures. Our team has experience with over 100 LGBTQIA+ relationships.
Gender Exploration
Comprehensive care for transgender and gender-nonconforming individuals exploring identity transitions. Services include pre-transition counseling, post-transition adjustment support, and navigating social/legal changes. Therapists provide informed guidance about medical transition options while addressing anxiety, discrimination trauma, and family dynamics. Our specialists work with clients across the gender spectrum using trauma-informed approaches that affirm each person's unique journey without prescriptive timelines.
Trauma Recovery
Specialized trauma treatment using EMDR, somatic experiencing, and parts work to heal from past experiences. Therapists address complex trauma from discrimination, religious abuse, and identity-based violence while creating safe therapeutic environments. Sessions focus on rebuilding body-mind connections and processing traumatic memories through evidence-based protocols. Our team includes certified practitioners with advanced training in treating LGBTQIA+ specific trauma patterns.
Psychedelic Therapy
Innovative ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) for treatment-resistant mental health conditions. This service combines psychedelic medicine with psychotherapy to address severe depression, anxiety, and trauma in queer and trans clients. Therapists provide comprehensive preparation, dosing, and integration sessions following strict safety protocols. Our certified practitioners specialize in creating therapeutic contexts that maximize healing potential while addressing unique needs of LGBTQIA+ individuals seeking alternative treatments.
