Our counselor's are diverse, licensed and are active participants within the community. We provide a safe space for individuals and couples to explore monogamous and non-monogamous relationships, complete pre-marital counseling, and create action steps to reach your life goals. We also provide group counseling, workshops, and annual conferences. Our purpose is to help you create a plan of action to achieve your joy.
Therapists with Achieving Joy specialize in working with the LGBTQ population with ages ranging from teens to adults. We understand how trauma impacts relationships and personal dreams.
