LGBT therapists in Carson City, NV

Waitlist for in-person appointments. Hi! My name is Elizabeth I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) committed to assisting you in navigating the challenges in life. I graduated from University of Nevada, Las Vegas with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology (2020) and a Master’s Degree in Social Work (2022). I have been practicing directly with clients since January 2023.

I specialize in children, adolescents, and young adults, but any age is welcome*. I believe in a client-focused approach and I will meet you where you are in your life.

I have several years of experience within the Autism community and I may be a good fit for those on the spectrum, or their family members. I also serve many with depression and anxiety and can assist you in identifying ways to manage your symptoms. I will support you in this journey and involve you in your treatment each step of the way.

*I limit telehealth services to ages 14+

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC) with advanced training in trauma and mindfulness. Before opening my private practice, I worked in forensic and community settings supporting clients involved with the justice system, those affected by interpersonal violence, and people navigating substance use and recovery.

My practice focuses on trauma, addiction, and personality-related challenges, with additional experience addressing mood instability, codependency, identity development, and relationship patterns. I provide inclusive, affirming care for LGBTQ+ clients and individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds.

I approach therapy with curiosity, humor, and honesty, offering space to explore patterns, build self-trust, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Hi, I’m Chris Brace (he/him), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and LGBTQ+ affirming couples therapist based in Las Vegas, NV. I specialize in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) — an evidence-based approach that helps partners break out of painful patterns, heal from disconnection, and reconnect in deeper, more secure ways.

I support couples and individuals navigating conflict, communication struggles, infidelity, emotional distance, premarital questions, and relationship ambivalence. My practice is especially attuned to the needs of queer, neurodiverse, and nontraditional relationships (including CNM and polyamorous partners). I strive to create a warm, inclusive, and judgment-free space where all identities and emotions are welcome.

For couples in crisis or those wanting to deepen their connection quickly, I also offer 2–3 day EFT Couples Intensives — an immersive, premium service outside of insurance designed to accelerate progress in just a weekend. I balance this with making weekly therapy available through Cigna and Aetna (via Headway), so couples can choose between a traditional path and a concentrated, cash-pay option.

I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), and I have advanced training in EFT. I’m also invited annually as a facilitator for national EFT trainings on LGBTQ+ inclusivity, where I help other clinicians build affirming skills.

If you’re ready to get unstuck and reconnect, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. You can book a free consult or schedule with your Cigna or Aetna insurance via Headway.

I actively participate in helping you get to where you want to go, and I offer insight when clients have a desire and readiness to hear it. I have worked in the mental health field for over ten years as well, so I have heard it all! My office is a no judgement zone first and foremost. I am a sex therapist and look forward to helping you overcome sexual shame and trauma so that you can have all the intimacy and closeness you desire.

Welcome to a healthier happier you! I am excited to join you on your wellness journey. Therapy is a courageous act of self-care. As a mental health therapist for more than a decade, I am honored to share the real-life tools that have helped so many brave clients throughout my career. I see my clients as whole individuals, and we explore all aspects of everyday life: physical, mental, social, financial health and more.
