About Our Practice
Pride Counseling Solutions began in 2018 as a queer-led effort to provide clinical consultation and training grounded in liberation and anti-oppression. What started as a small educational offering quickly revealed a deeper truth: our LGBTQIA2S+ communities need more healing spaces built by and for us.
In response, the collective expanded in 2019 to include inclusive, justice-focused therapy services for youth, adults, and families. Today, we are a growing collective of clinicians working collaboratively to support individual and community well-being.
Our Mission
Our mission at Pride Counseling Solutions is to increase access to inclusive, empowering, and affirming therapeutic services for LGBTQIA2S+, queer, and trans individuals and their families. We achieve this by not only offering therapy to the community, but also by training other mental health providers and businesses to create systemic change and provide inclusive care.
Our Values
P – Power with, not power over
We honor your autonomy and wisdom.
We believe therapy should empower you, not try to control or fix you. We work in partnership with you, honoring your voice, your choices, and your truths.
R – Radical affirmation
We celebrate and validate all of who you are.
Your intersecting identities- queer, trans, BIPOC, disabled, immigrant, neurodivergent, and more- are honored here. You don’t need to shrink yourself to be supported.
I – Intersectionality matters
We’re all connected, and so are our struggles.
We understand that things like racism, ableism, transphobia, classism, and other forms of oppression overlap in complex ways. We see the whole picture and we work with care, curiosity, and respect.
D – Disruption and Decolonization
We challenge the systems that harm.
Our work doesn’t stop at the therapy room. We engage in practices that question white supremacy, capitalism, and colonial mindsets, creating space for liberatory and culturally grounded healing.
E – Embodied liberation
Healing is about more than coping, it’s about freedom.
We support you in finding wholeness in your body, relationships, and community. That means making room for joy, pleasure, boundaries, and imagining new ways to live fully.

We prioritize these values not only when working with clients, but also when providing educational resources to our training consumers. We believe in the importance of affirming and inclusive practices in all aspects of our work.
