Our Counselors
Peer counselors are not therapists, and we do not diagnose or prescribe medication. We are volunteers trained and supervised by mental health professionals. We work closely with our clients to help them make changes and see results.
We also offer clients referrals to resources and information on a variety of issues, including local organizations, support groups and LGBT-friendly therapists.
PLEASE NOTE: Because we are an anonymous service, we do not collect any identifying information from our clients, including last names, addresses or telephone numbers. Therefore, we are not able to contact clients directly or respond to messages left on our voicemail system.
