We provide affirming counseling services at a subsidized cost to those seeking therapy. Everyone is welcome.

We support LGBTQ individuals, families, and friends with vital therapy to navigate their journey to understand their sexuality, gender identity, and spirituality. Many people feel unhappy and disconnected from themselves and the people they love. LGBT/SSA issues and LDS or religious values may influence those connections. If you wonder whether you can strengthen yourself and your relationships, there are answers. New coping skills help you see yourself and your relationships differently and new brain techniques can help resolve old traumas along with current research that brings understanding. It's not too late to look at your life differently and change what's happening in your world. Whether you feel hopelessness, have problems with peers or parents, in a stuck relationship with yourself or others, find it difficult to understand or relate to teenagers, experience extended family issues that keep you from enjoying people you love, are carrying past trauma that continues to intrude and cause distress, or addressing LGBTQ issues, Flourish Counseling Services is for you. Our donors & volunteers make it possible for us to offer subsidized therapy. Flourish no longer will be operating out of the Encircle Center in Provo, and will be at a new location in the next month or so.

We have a new Autism Support Group at Flourish Therapy!

Fridays at 7PM MST | Starting Nov 7 on Google Meet

We hope you are as excited about this new support group as we are because there isn’t enough neurodivergent spaces. Our Autism Support Group is a space for neurodivergent adults (diagnosed or self-identified) to connect, share experiences, and learn skills for navigating a world that often wasn’t built with us in mind. Creating community for the neurodivergent is essential. This group wasn’t created just for support, but also for a space of refuge, a space of belonging, understanding, and celebration of the different ways our minds move through the world.

Marginalized trailblazers within the LGBTQIA2S+ community are those who not only fought (or are fighting) for q***r rights but also faced additional layers of oppression due to their race, gender identity, socioeconomic status, or ability. Here are some key figures who have been pivotal but are often overlooked in mainstream narratives.

How many of these trail blazers did you know about?

10/17/2025

They’ve tried to silence, legislate, and erase us, over and over and over again. But every attempt to bury us only reminds us of our roots.

Q***r and trans people have always found ways to grow toward the light, together. In the face of political attacks, we find strength in community, in care, and in the unshakable truth that we will keep rising.

Therapy isn’t about forcing one path for everyone.

Just as AA doesn’t work for every person in recovery, faith-based or identity-changing approaches don’t belong in therapy either.

Real therapy is about helping people find their truth, not shaping them to fit someone else’s beliefs.

Conversion therapy is not therapy. It’s harm disguised as healing. It teaches people to disconnect from who they are, to believe that authenticity is the problem.

At Flourish, we know the difference between helping and hurting.

We choose compassion, evidence-based care, and the kind of therapy that brings people closer to themselves, not further away. Lastly, gender, affirming care saves lives.

***rHealing lives.
