Inclusive Therapy for BIPOC & LGBTQ+ Clients Across Colorado
At Grounded Light Counseling, we provide online therapy across Colorado for individuals seeking a safe, affirming space to explore identity, heal from bias, and strengthen self-confidence.
If you’ve felt unseen, misunderstood, or pressured to fit into spaces that don’t fully honor who you are — therapy can help you reclaim your sense of self and safety.
We offer culturally responsive and affirming therapy that celebrates your identity and provides tools for navigating a world that doesn’t always make that easy.
You deserve therapy that sees the whole you — not just one part.
A Space Where All of You Belongs
We understand that mental health doesn’t exist in isolation.
It’s shaped by lived experience, community, culture, and systemic influences — all of which deserve care and respect.
Our goal is to help you explore your identity and mental health with compassion, without judgment, and with the recognition that external systems often impact internal struggles.
Whether you’re processing the effects of racism, homophobia, transphobia, cultural disconnection, or chronic stress, our work is centered on your healing and your voice.
What Inclusive Therapy Can Help With
Identity Development & Self-Acceptance: Explore and embrace the parts of you that may have been silenced or misunderstood.
Healing from Discrimination & Bias: Address the trauma of marginalization and its impact on your mental and emotional well-being.
Stress, Anxiety & Burnout: Learn how to regulate your nervous system and create emotional balance in environments that may not always feel safe.
Relationships & Communication: Navigate authenticity, boundaries, and belonging — both personally and professionally.
Community & Connection: Rebuild trust in relationships and rediscover what belonging means to you.
Our Approach — Affirming, Anti-Racist, and Trauma-Informed
Our work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based strategies, paired with deep cultural humility.
We approach therapy through a trauma-informed, anti-racist lens, which means we:
Prioritize emotional safety and consent in every session.
Honor how cultural, racial, and gender-based trauma affect the mind and body.
Empower you to define what healing looks like — not us.
For LGBTQ+ and gender-diverse clients, therapy may include gender-affirming support, HRT readiness letters, or relationship-focused work that celebrates authenticity and choice.
For BIPOC clients, we create space to process the weight of racial trauma, microaggressions, or generational patterns while honoring cultural resilience and joy.
Healing Through Representation and Empowerment
You don’t need to explain your identity here — you get to explore it.
Our therapists are trained and committed to continual learning in cultural humility, anti-oppression frameworks, and intersectional psychology.
Therapy isn’t about changing who you are — it’s about helping you find strength in your truth and learning to move through the world with greater ease and self-trust.
Together, we’ll build skills to manage anxiety, regulate stress, and create confidence in spaces that once felt unsafe.
