You Are Not Alone
We understand that while LGBTQ+ kids and adults face the same struggles and hardships as everyone else, their lives come with other unique challenges and stressors, such as:
- Coming to terms with one’s identity
- Mistreatment, marginalization, and abuse
- Dealing with rejection and misunderstanding from family and friends
- Coping with stigmatized illnesses (e.g., HIV)
- Body or sex shaming
- Pressure and heteronormativity from society
Too many people within the queer community feel alone, isolated, and unsupported, and to make matters worse, few therapists are trained to help support the LGBTQ+ community. This leaves many individuals who seek help feeling unheard and misunderstood by their therapists. At WMPS, we strive to change this narrative and provide the therapy support that LGBTQ+ clients deserve.
Find Yourself, Be Yourself, Love Yourself
West Michigan Psychological Services (WMPS) offers therapy for members of the LGBTQ+ community just like you. As advocates and members, we share a passion for fostering inclusivity and love for all people, and we see our therapy services as a way to further that movement.
LGBTQ+-friendly therapy helps you (or your child) find, be, and love yourself. Whether you are questioning and exploring, facing a crisis, or simply looking for a space to be understood, you should feel at home with your therapist.

- Build a sense of self-worth and love
- Rebuild relationships with friends and family
- Discover new aspects of your unique personality
