SAN DIEGO LGBTQ+ COUNSELING
Ready to feel seen, understood, and affirmed?
Maybe you landed here because you've had therapy before, but felt like you and your therapist were on two different pages—or worse, you felt judged or looked down on. Or perhaps you've never been to therapy and feel nervous about talking to someone about the most sacred and vulnerable parts of yourself.
You deserve to live a life of joy, love, and personal freedom…and our team of San Diego LGBTQ+ therapists can help.
Discrimination, oppression, and social stigma can make it feel impossible to live authentically.
The data is pretty clear: people in the LGBTQ+ community are at greater risk for experiencing violence, suicide, depression, self-harm, and anxiety. While it's true we have made strides as a society, we still have a long, long way to go.
As a result, people in the LGBTQ+ community often express feeling isolated and alone—feelings that are further amplified when a person feels like there is no room to be themselves, even with the people who are supposed to be closest to them.
Like many people we've have worked with, you might be feeling any one or more of the following:
You feel like no one “gets” you
You feel misunderstood or misidentified
You feel like you have to hide who you are from your family or friends
On the other hand, maybe you’re still figuring out who you are and feel lost
You feel “displaced” in the community you were once a part of, or are trying to reconcile other parts of you, like your faith or culture, with who you are on the inside
You feel abandoned and alone
We are passionate about helping people of all faiths, genders, non-conforming identities and backgrounds.
When you're looking for help, you want to work with—someone you know not only affirms who you are, but truly values your perspective and what you bring to the world around you. This is why it's easier to connect with an LGBTQ-affirming therapist even if the support you're seeking is unrelated to your sexual or gender identity.
We have years of experience working with teens, adults and families from both traditional and non-traditional relationships—some who were in the process of coming out, some transitioning, and some who were still figuring out who they are.
If our collective experience has taught us anything, it is this: the LGBTQ+ community is full of brave, resilient, ambitious, and creative people who deeply enrich the world around them. This is why from the moment you reach out, our LGBTQ counselors work to create a safe space where you feel supported and heard.
If you’re ready to work through unresolved issues that hold you back from living your best life, our San Diego LGBTQ-affirming therapists are here for you.
The first step can be scary, but working with an LGBTQ-affirming therapist in San Diego can feel like relief…liberating.
