Pride Counseling's Mission
Pride Counseling is dedicated to providing Gay/Lesbian client's quality counseling services in a Gay/Lesbian friendly environment. We provide services that are consistent with the skills of our therapist who are either Gay or Lesbian or have demonstrated a commitment to the Gay and Lesbian Community.
Gay & Gay-Friendly Therapists for GLBTQ Clients
Many gay and lesbian people, either in the closet or out, approach mental health counseling with some trepidation. Stereotypes about homosexuality creep into a therapist‘s office and can impact the process of change for the client. Gay, lesbian, bisexual and questioning people should not have to wonder about their therapist‘s capacity to understand their lifestyle.
In addition, court-ordered therapy is usually designed for heterosexuals and fail to ethically address valid concerns for gays and lesbians. Often clients feel on the outside looking in while participating in these programs. Gay clients should not have to educate their therapist about their mindset or validate their lifestyle.
Pride Counseling offers a safe, discrete and relevant alternative, an unprecedented holistic healing center that eliminates the potential therapist/client barrier of differing sexual orientation. Gay and Gay-Friendly therapists working with GLBTQ clients make the difference.
Whether you are looking for a traditional, Native American, Buddhist, reality, or environment-based approach to healing and a new life, Pride Counseling will find the best fit for your specific needs. Pride counseling‘s goal is to provide affirmative, ethical services and referrals to the Salt Lake City and Utah GLBTQ community.
