Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
LGBTQIA+ identities are often treated as something to analyze or explain—but for many people, the real challenge is navigating a world that doesn’t consistently feel safe, affirming, or understanding. Whether you’re exploring your identity, coming out, navigating relationships, or dealing with family, cultural, or religious dynamics, there’s often a lot to hold. Experiences of discrimination, invisibility, or having to constantly assess safety can take a real toll—especially when you’re expected to keep functioning as if it’s not happening.
At Nour Counseling, our care is explicitly affirming—not neutral, not “tolerant,” but actively supportive and celebratory of who you are. Most of our clinicians identify as LGBTQIA+ themselves, which means you’re not starting from a place of having to explain or justify your experience. We prioritize helping you build a sense of belonging—within yourself, in your relationships, and in the spaces you move through. We also address the impact of religious messaging or trauma that may have shaped how you see yourself, creating space to unpack and redefine those experiences on your own terms. Along the way, we name the broader systems and narratives that impact LGBTQIA+ individuals, so you’re not internalizing something that was never yours to carry. This is a space where you can show up as you are and focus on building a life that actually fits.

Insight Therapeutic and Wellness Solutions, PLLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCS, NCC, ACS
Stigma-free, affirming therapy for LGBTQIA+ Individuals
Do you live outside of the heteronormative-cisgender box?
Have you been to other supposed “LGBTQ-friendly” counselors who had no idea what you were talking about?
Could you use a safe space to process your feelings and assess your goals?
Or maybe you’re seeking relationship counseling from someone who understands where you’re coming from.
If you can relate to any of the above, then you’ve come to the right place.
No judgments. No biases. Just a strong support system with open ears.
Stigma, in any form, is an impediment to the well-being of those who experience it. Given the stressors that LGBT groups must confront, such as homophobia, prejudice, coming out, and discrimination, finding a therapist who is openly LGBT-friendly or who specializes in LGBT issues is crucial to your personal growth.
As LGBTQIA+ affirming therapists, we are committed to helping clients of all genders, sexual identities and expressions feel not only safe, but truly respected.
If you or someone you know is seeking help from an LGBTQIA+ therapist, contact us today. we would be happy to speak with you about how we can help.

Jess Clodfelter
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCMHC, LPC, NCC, CCTP-II
You don’t need therapy where you’re educating your therapist on the basics of your identity — you need one where you can actually get support. I work primarily with LGBTQ+ folx, especially trans and nonbinary clients, navigating identity exploration, dysphoria, relationships, and the stress of existing in systems that weren’t built with you in mind. This is a space where you don’t have to shrink yourself, explain yourself, or brace for weird reactions. We focus on helping you feel more grounded in who you are, build self-trust, and move through the world with a little more clarity and a lot less second-guessing.
I also provide gender-affirming surgery letters through a collaborative, non-gatekeeping process, so you can access the care you need without unnecessary barriers or hoops to jump through.
