VIRTUAL THERAPY for lgbtq+ christians
WHO WE ARE
The Christian Closet is a team of LGBTQ+ affirming therapists and spiritual directors offering virtual therapy for queer Christians. We support individuals exploring their LGBTQIA+ identity within a faith-based or Christian context.
WHAT WE DO
Through secure online sessions, we meet with clients across the globe to help them explore who they are and how their LGBTQ+ identity can beautifully co-exist with a vibrant Christian faith. Whether you’re processing your sexuality, gender identity, or healing from religious trauma, we’re here to help you find clarity, healing, and hope.
WHAT ABOUT GOD AND the Bible?
Many of our clients come to us with questions about how their LGBTQ+ identity fits with their Christian beliefs. At The Christian Closet, our LGBTQ+ Christian therapists, coaches, and spiritual directors provide a compassionate space to explore questions about God, the Bible, and your place in both.
We specialize in supporting those navigating faith deconstruction, religious trauma, and the pain of non-affirming church experiences. It’s okay to have doubts. It’s okay to wrestle with Scripture. We’re here to walk with you through it all—toward healing, hope, and wholeness.
WHO WE WORK WITH
We work with LGBTQIA+ individuals—including gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, intersex, queer, and questioning people—who are navigating faith, family, identity, and healing. We also support straight family members, Christian parents, pastors, and friends seeking to better understand and support someone they love.
Through The Christian Closet and our partner organization, Affirming Therapy and Progressive Christian Counseling, we provide therapy and resources for both individuals and families. This is a safe and sacred space to process your feelings, explore your beliefs, and grow in self-acceptance.
HOW VIRTUAL THERAPY WORKS
Starting therapy or spiritual direction can feel overwhelming—especially when you’re carrying the weight of shame, questions about faith, or fear of rejection. At The Christian Closet, we make it easy to begin.
THE FIRST STEP
Your first step is a free phone consultation with a therapist, coach, or spiritual director. We’ll listen to your story, learn about what you’re going through, and help you determine the best next step for your healing journey.
We’ve helped thousands of LGBTQ+ people of faith find peace, clarity, and connection—starting with just one phone call.We know that reaching out for therapy, spiritual direction and coaching can feel like one of the most intimidating and scary things a person can do; and yet also can be one of the biggest gifts you can offer yourself.
WHAT COMES NEXT
After your free consultation, we’ll schedule your first session at a time that works best for you. Whether you’re joining from your home, car, or office, our fully virtual practice meets you where you are.
We use secure, HIPAA-compliant platforms like Simple Practice, Doxy.me, and Zoom, and you’ll receive simple online forms to complete your intake.
