Empowering individuals, enriching lives
At Pride Counseling, we understand the unique challenges that the LGBTQ community faces in finding a safe and affirming environment for mental health counseling. Our mission is to provide high-quality counseling services to the LGBTQ community in Salt Lake City and Utah, honoring all individuals who seek our services.
Our Services
Our experienced and licensed therapist, Jerry, has been providing counseling services since 1994. He has worked with clients with diverse needs, including those in the LGBTQ community, addressing issues such as sexuality, identity, relationships, conflict resolution, spirituality, and religion. Jerry's clinical experience has equipped him with an eclectic background in working with clients from all walks of life.
What Sets Us Apart
Many LGBTQ individuals, either in the closet or out, approach mental health counseling with trepidation due to stereotypes and biases. We eliminate this potential barrier by providing a safe, discrete, and relevant alternative. Our goal is to offer affirmative, ethical services and referrals to the Salt Lake City and Utah LGBTQ community. We also welcome heterosexual clients, providing a safe and affirming counseling experience for anyone who seeks our services.
Group Counseling
Group counseling is a valuable tool for individuals seeking support and guidance. By sharing experiences and hearing real stories from others, individuals can gain new perspectives, learn from others, and develop trust within the group. Our group counseling sessions provide a safe space for individuals to open up and explore new ways of thinking and problem-solving.
Private and Couple's Counseling
We also offer private and couple's counseling services for those seeking one-on-one interaction or discrete counseling. These sessions provide a private and confidential environment for individuals or couples to address their specific needs and concerns.
Frequently Asked Questions
If you have questions about our services or fees, please don't hesitate to contact us. We accept many insurance coverage plans, and our office is happy to provide more information on pricing and availability.
