Core Values

Diversity, Inclusion & Equality

We prioritize working with LGBTQ+ professionals and clients from all backgrounds, ages, abilities, and more. Our organization was founded on the principle that diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the core of successful and valuable mental health care.

Compassion

While advances have been made in the mental health field, mental illness is still stigmatized. We are passionate about providing compassionate care for LGBTQ+ folx and only provide referrals to and partner with trusted mental health care providers. We also educate others on mental illness and how stigma can worsen the well-being of those living with mental illness and mental health conditions. We are dedicated to increasing educational opportunities for professionals in compassionate care for highly stigmatized conditions.

Advocacy

LGBTQ+ rights, access to mental health care and addiction treatment, as well as the importance of gender affirming care, are some of our biggest values. We frequently work to advocate, provide community outreach and education, and take part in policy work whenever we have the opportunity.

Collaboration

Mental health care and LGBTQ+ advocacy and rights do not happen in a vacuum. We are dedicated to collaborating with mental health professionals and other LGBTQ+ folx and allies who are passionate about our community’s needs and rights. We partner with various organizations and individuals to expand our organization’s mission.

Adaptability

The mental health care landscape is ever changing. With the current political environment impacting LGBTQ+ rights, access to affordable healthcare and insurance, as well as other resources, we are dedicated to working daily to adapt to every change. This means that our organization is always changing, and we will continue to adapt to the most pressing needs of our community.
