COUNSELING

Affordable counseling is available at our Santa Barbara office for LGBTQ+ individuals, individuals living with HIV/AIDS, and their partners, family, and friends.

Counseling at Pacific Pride features a team of six to eight counseling interns (a majority of whom identify as LGBTQ+) who are trained in issues relevant to LGBTQ+ mental health--with full, robust training in best practices for Transgender (Non-Binary included) clients.

Our Santa Barbara counselors are overseen by the well-respected Bren Fraser, LMFT, and offer high-quality, culturally competent individual, couples, and family therapy for a sliding scale fee based on income and number of dependents.

Therapy Groups 

-The LGBTQ+ Adult Group is for diverse LGBTQ+ adults (18+) processing coming out, relationship building, coping strategies, and more.

-The Transgender Group (including non-binary individuals) gives clients space to process self-care, cope with gender dysphoria and transition questions, and celebrate the joys of living one's true gender. 

-The Parents of LGBTQ+ Children Group is for parents processing any grief, joys, or questions about the gender journey of their child (of any age).

All of our programs are free or low cost and offered in English and Spanish through our offices in Santa Barbara and Santa Maria.

We also offer a sliding scale fee based on income and number of dependents.
