Meridian Therapists specializing in LGBTQ Issues

Name: TherapyDen LLC
Price range: $

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.

I see you. The past isn't all you hoped it would be. The future feels like a creaky bridge across a canyon. Presently; you're not entirely sure how to take your next steps or where those steps will lead you. It can be confusing, overwhelming and maybe even unbearable. So here you are. You're looking for answers. You're looking for something to help with "all of this."

Ciara Chesnut
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
"Uhm, that's not normal," said by a friend, is often when you realize you glossed over a few toxic or traumatic things in your life. Realizing your lived reality, whether it be your childhood, your relationships, your experience entering motherhood, is markedly different than "the norm" can be jarring but you're not alone. I can help you untangle the trauma and emotions from your past. We can shift your present to heal the legacy of your experiences, all while loving and nurturing who you are.

Clients who are struggling with living their best lives find connection and healing in my practice. My specialties include helping adolescents, teens, and adults work through trauma (sexual trauma is a special strength), as well as short-term, solution-focused work regarding a specific problem.

Have you tried talk therapy before and felt like you needed more? Through sand tray, play therapy or Internal Family Systems, the topics can be addressed as you are ready to address them.

Emily Mortensen
Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LCPC - 8457
I have a passion for working with teens and adults, Gen Z, Millennials, and people figuring out the whole 'adulting thing' (myself included!). Many of my clients I work with are figuring out their identities, navigating life transitions, and managing anxiety. Many of my clients enjoy my approach that is inclusive of tangents, rabbit holes, visual thinking, and the structure I can provide.

I encourage those I work with to tune into their natural abilities to heal painful experiences, to explore overlooked possibilities, and to create the inspired life they desire.

Jamie Buckingham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-8851
Sometimes folks have an experience, or just find themselves in the world, not knowing how they fit in. They feel the pressure to succeed, difficulty in relationships, often with mounting anger or deep depression. Unwanted thoughts or behaviors start to creep in. How do you get out of these cycles and be authentic again? My specialties in Trauma, Family Systems, and Play therapy have helped those identified with trauma, ASD, military, first responders, LGBTQ and allied, self-harm, and more.

Katie Grohs
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Coming to counseling can feel vulnerable, intimidating, and overwhelming. I believe in a strong therapeutic relationship that is built at your own pace. Although I can offer guidance, insight, and support, I strongly believe that you are the expert of yourself, and my goal is to empower you to gain confidence in making life decisions.

Counselor, LCPC
I tend to best serve people who are working to find clarity and relief from current or past experiences that create emotional distress, whether that be from childhood trauma, current adult trauma and experiences, or anything in between. I work well with clients who are ready to see a change in their lives, even if they're not sure what that might be exactly. I limit my practice to adult individuals at this time.

Lindsay Fraley
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
My hope is to walk alongside each person in building a deeper connection with themselves and the world around them. Trauma, relationships and life (to name a few) can often come between us and our ability to lean into our own authenticity and we sometimes lose ourselves in it all. The heart of my work is in supporting you in your healing process to be able to uncover your true self and live your most authentic life.

Dr. April Watts
Counselor, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
Do you try to “have it all together” on the outside but on the inside you’re doubting yourself, bottling your emotions, or worried others will think less of you when/if they see the “real” you? Maybe you continue to spend time with people who treat you poorly, but you’re not sure why. Perhaps your anxiety is causing physical symptoms like stomach problems or muscle tension. Many of my clients have experienced similar things in the past but are now feeling more grounded and peaceful.

As adults, sometimes we feel stuck feeling anxious, depressed, stressed or notice that some of our patterns are no longer helpful to us. Maybe it seems harder to get traction for change? Therapy can be a way to access the support and tools we need for working with our past and present to move toward the future we want. EMDR can be an incredible tool for this process.
