LGBTQ+ Counseling For Individuals and Families

LGBTQIA+ mental health challenges are common, especially among LGBTQIA+ teens and adolescents. Nearly 25% of LGBTQIA+ students face bullying at school, and 30% are bullied online. This discrimination often leads to distress, depression, anxiety, and self-harm. Suicidal ideation and attempts are also four times more likely among LGBTQIA+ young people.

Whether you’re navigating coming out, dealing with discrimination, or seeking to strengthen your relationships, we’re here to help you thrive. Our supportive counseling services are designed to address the unique challenges LGBTQIA+ individuals and families face. We provide a safe, inclusive space to explore your identity.

Chris Dorsey, LCSW MBA

Everyone needs help, but they also need a place to reflect on their life and be accepted unconditionally. I take great pride in providing that environment. Someone did that for me and it transformed my life.

With experience in palliative care, both in hospice and my own father’s journey with dementia, I have a unique set of skills to whole heartedly guide clients through the most challenging of circumstances.

I apply integrative approaches to grief and loss treatment focused on navigating through difficult life transitions while also improving ones self-esteem and feelings of self-worth. I also have extensive training in Dignity Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) as well as supporting care-takers through mindful self compassion. Reach out, I would be honored to work with you on your journey.

Think we might be a good fit? Contact me today for a free consultation to learn more about how we can work together.
