Our Values at Rainbow Connection Counseling Collective

Every human life is worthy of love and belonging. As a LGBTQ+ and/or BIPOC individual or partnership, we believe you deserve the best, most affirming care tailored to your unique needs and story. Experience the transformative difference an affirming, accepting, and culturally informed therapist can make

Fists with LGBTQIA+ on them

At Rainbow Connection Counseling Collective, we don’t just "accept" diversity—we center it. We believe that therapy is most effective when your therapist deeply understands and connects to the intersectional identities of your life and the unique challenges you face.

We believe the most healing factor of therapy is the trusting and intimate relationship between client and therapist.

Whether you are seeking support in San Diego, Seattle, Portland (OR), San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York City (NYC), or anywhere in California, Washington, Oregon, or New York our doors are open to you.

Above all we honor and respect your personal autonomy and right to self-deterimination and self-actualization

  • We are proudly affirming of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, Questioning, Agender, Asexual, Aromantic, Pansexual, and Two-Spirit identities. We recognize that there is no "right" way to be queer or to transition. The only “right” way is to be your authentic self.

  • We provide dedicated support for trans, non-binary, and gender-expansive individuals. We are WPATH-informed and provide letters for gender-affirming medical care (hormones, surgery) without unnecessary gatekeeping.

  • Your relationship structure and desires are respected here. We offer a shame-free environment for those practicing polyamory, ethical non-monogamy (ENM), and Kink/BDSM.

  • We believe Black Lives Matter. We are committed to the ongoing work of unlearning systemic racism and providing culturally humble care that honors the unique experiences of Queer and Trans People of Color (QTBIPOC).

    We are a Asian American and Queer owned and led practice

  • We celebrate neurodiversity. Whether you are ADHD, Autistic, or identify as "nerdy" or "niche," we adapt our therapeutic approach to fit your brain—not the other way around.

  • We welcome all body sizes and abilities, operating from a Health at Every Size (HAES) and disability-justice framework.

  • Sexual Function & Body Connection: Addressing concerns like erectile dysfunction (ED), premature ejaculation, vaginismus, and dyspareunia (sexual pain) through a combined psychological and somatic approach.

  • Sexual Trauma Recovery: Gently untangling the impact of past trauma on your current relationship with intimacy and touch.

  • Out-of-Control Sexual Behavior: Moving away from "sex addiction" models and toward a Sexual Health Model that focuses on integrity, values, and self-regulation.

  • Asexuality & Gray-A Visibility: Affirming those on the asexual and aromantic spectrums and navigating intimacy without the pressure of sexual expectations.
