LGBTQ COUNSELING

It can be a real challenge, especially today, to find a counselor who is not only affirming of your sexual orientation or gender identity but who truly understands, cares for, and is an advocate for you as a member of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender & Queer community. It can be even more difficult to find a counselor who belongs to the LGBTQ community themselves.

People who have an LGBTQ identity are at greater risk for:

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

  • Addiction

  • Self-harm

  • Suicide

Despite these increased risks, we also know that people in the LGBTQ community are among the most resilient in the face of what can feel like a constant uphill battle.

We also know that the coming out or gender transitioning process can be an especially difficult one, and even more so without professional, caring help.

At Charlotte Counseling & Wellness, we take pride in helping people of all backgrounds, including those with LGBTQ, questioning, or gender non-conforming identities. This includes both LGBTQ adults as well as teenagers and older children.

We also enjoy working with people who are in non-traditional and alternative relationships of all kinds. 

We have years of combined experience working in the LGBTQ community and use this experience, along with our personal life experiences, to inform our approach to helping you.

We are an LGBTQ-owned practice and are active social advocates for the LGBTQ community in Charlotte.
