Our mission is to increase accessibility to quality mental health and wellness services to the LGBTQ+ population. Maybe you just realized that you are gay or trans and you don’t know what to do next. Maybe you’re one of the many LGBTQ+ persons who have faced abuse, depression, anxiety, or other mental health struggles and are simply trying to exist. Maybe you're in a polyamorous/ENM relationship struggling with communication hangups, parenting, mismatched sexual desire or infidelity. Or maybe you spent your whole life shaming yourself for being "lazy," or "irresponsible," but you just can't seem to make your brain work with you.
You aren't broken. Our providers undergo regular training to expand competence in issues commonly faced by the LGBTQ+ population, such as unique relationship structures, religious trauma, gender exploration, neurodivergence, and more. We offer a variety of therapy modalities, life coaching, and have an onsite partnership with a licensed massage therapist.
Are you ready to live fully and authentically, holding every part of you with compassion? Let's work together to make your relationship rewarding again. Let's team up to develop skills that work with your brain rather than fighting it. We invite you to come, rest, explore, grow. You are enough.
