Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
My near 20 years of experience has helped me develop an approach to therapy that involves providing a supportive and affirming environment where you can explore their identity and experiences while feeling accepted and affirmed. It is important to acknowledging and validating the unique challenges faced by LGBT+ individuals, such as discrimination, internalized homophobia, and coming out. Therapy can help address issues you may have related to self-acceptance, relationship dynamics, and coping with societal pressures. By fostering a safe space, my hope is to empower you to develop resilience, enhance self-esteem, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) issues therapy, also known as LGBT-affirmative therapy or LGBTQ+ counseling, provides LGBT community members with support and understanding tailored to their unique experiences and difficulties. LGBT-affirmative treatment seeks to create a secure and welcoming environment where clients can explore their identities, resolve concerns about their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression, and work toward greater self-acceptance and well-being.
Therapists who provide LGBT-affirmative therapy know the potential effects of heteronormativity, cisnormativity, and other forms of prejudice on their clients. They endeavor to foster an accepting, affirming, and nonjudgmental environment of diverse gender and sexual identities.
Not all therapists have specialized training or experience working with LGBT issues. If you are looking for LGBT-affirming therapy, it is recommended that you seek out therapists who advertise their expertise in this area or inquire about their experience with LGBT clients during the initial consultation.
Overall, LGBT-affirmative therapy aims to assist LGBT individuals in navigating their unique challenges, developing resilience, and fostering positive mental health and well-being in a secure and affirming therapeutic environment.

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
Much of my career has focused on supporting LGBTQIA people in any number of ways. Whether you're at a point where you're considering coming out, if you're exploring your sexual or gender identity, or need space to process the important relationships in your life, this can be a great space to do some work. Many LGBTQIA people have had to make compromises in their lives to fit into social norms that don't mirror queer realities, and doing so can leave a real impact. I love to help LGBTQIA people work toward becoming more fully themselves.

Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
You shouldn't have to spend your therapy sessions managing your therapist's learning curve about your identity. I built Courageous You specifically for LGBTQIA+ adults who want care that already understands their lives: the complexity of coming out (at any age, any number of times), identity-based trauma, minority stress, navigating family and community, gender exploration, and everything in between. I offer Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy for queer clients carrying depression, trauma, or the particular kind of exhaustion that comes from decades of not fully belonging. And I offer Somatic EMDR therapy and affirming individual or relationship therapy when KAP isn't the right fit. You deserve a therapist who gets it. Telehealth in WA, ID, and FL.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
In my work with LGBTQ+ individuals in psychotherapy, I strive to create a warm and supportive environment where clients can explore and embrace their authentic selves. I understand the unique challenges they may face, such as issues related to gender identity, sexual orientation, navigating relationships, and experiences of discrimination. By using a compassionate and non-judgmental approach, I help clients address these concerns while affirming their identity and experiences. I custom tailor therapy to meet each person where they are at, recognizing and valuing their individual history and circumstances. Whether it's processing feelings of uncertainty, building self-esteem, or developing strategies to handle discrimination, my goal is to support clients in living fully and confidently as their true selves, empowering them to build meaningful and fulfilling lives.

Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
As an EFT and IFS therapist, I provide a safe, affirming space to help LGBTQ+ individuals and couples navigate the unique challenges of minority stress, coming out, and internalized shame. By integrating Internal Family Systems (IFS), we can gently unburden parts of you that have absorbed negative societal messages or carry protective, fearful, or shame-based roles, allowing your core Self to lead with compassion.
Complementing this, I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to foster secure attachments, helping you and your partner de-escalate conflict and rebuild trust in a world that may not always feel supportive. Together, we will honor your inner complexity, celebrate your identity, and build resilience. All parts of you are welcome here.
