LGBTQ+ Friendly Counseling in Castle Rock
A therapy practice where you can be fully yourself. No explanations needed. Just support, understanding, and a space to grow.
You Deserve a Therapist Who Gets It
Finding a therapist who truly understands the LGBTQ+ experience can be exhausting. Too many therapy sessions get derailed by having to educate your therapist, or worse—feeling judged for who you are.
At South Denver Therapy, you don't have to explain yourself. We're an LGBTQ+ affirming practice with years of experience working with gay couples, queer individuals, trans and nonbinary folks, and anyone across the spectrum of gender and sexuality.
Whether you're working through anxiety, navigating a relationship, exploring your identity, or healing from past experiences, we're here to support you.
