Just like any other group, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) community faces mental health issues and unique challenges. However, LGBTQ individuals are almost 3 times more likely than others to experience a mental health condition, such as depression or anxiety. Additionally, more than half of individuals who identify as transgender experience depression or anxiety. The LGBTQ community is also at a higher risk for suicide. Young people are even more at risk, as they may experience a lack of support at home and fear, hatred or prejudice in school. If you are a member of the LGBTQ community and are facing mental health challenges, you don’t have to suffer in silence. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s LGBTQ experts and get help today.

Eli Hastings
Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
Over the years my clientele has tended more and more to be people who are dealing with traumatic experiences, whatever that may mean for them. Trauma for me is about an experience that ranges from distressing to devastating and encodes negative beliefs in us, which often then lead to all of the diagnostic "problems" that mental health counselors see. I believe in exploration and collaboration as well as the right tools when the time comes.

Idil Levitas
Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Clients come to me feeling like they don’t fit fully in their lives. Oftentimes they are so focused on being there for others, that there’s no time and space for themselves. They’re depleted—from work, care-giving, or their personal relationships. They may be trying to do everything right, and then wind up feeling empty and drained at the end of the day. Something inside them (and maybe inside of you) knows that this isn’t working, and that there must be another way. And there is.

Jackie Kosak
Art Therapist, LMHC, ATR
Maybe at one point it all made sense -- your feelings, sensations, and reactions (even the dark and heightened ones) felt known and even comforting. Now you are looking for a new way to endure and thrive. If you are someone who believes that each of us know our own wounds, that we possess a strong inner wisdom, and that we have the ability to access the latent potential to grow and change – or, you want to believe – you will find a good fit with me and my therapeutic offerings.

Carly Claney
Clinical Psychologist, PhD
It is often difficult to put words to what feels off. Sometimes there's pain or discomfort, and sometimes there's confusion or hopelessness knowing what to do about a specific aspect of your life, like a relationship, your faith, or your career. You may be used to feeling this way but it doesn't mean you don't want things to change. I can help you understand yourself and walk with you in the process of healing.
