Therapist

Virtual • Nevada


I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's degree in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University and 18 years of experience in behavioral health and addiction services. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals facing substance use challenges, mental health concerns, life transitions, and personal struggles that can leave people feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from who they want to be.

I specialize in working with adults experiencing addiction, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, men's issues, LGBTQ+ concerns, relationship challenges, trauma, and major life transitions. I am passionate about helping clients discover their strengths, develop healthier coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I believe that healing happens when people feel accepted, understood, and supported. My goal is to provide a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment where clients can explore their experiences without judgment. No matter how difficult things may feel today, I believe there is hope for growth, healing, and recovery.

Christopher Brace

Christopher Brace

Therapist

Virtual • Las Vegas, NV


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.

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Henderson

Finding LGBTQIA therapists in Henderson starts with choosing identity-affirming care that matches your needs. An affirmative therapist may support concerns related to identity, relationships, family stress, anxiety, depression, or life changes. As you compare Henderson therapists, look for profiles that mention LGBTQIA+ populations, affirmative therapy, gender-diverse experience, or World Professional Association for Transgender Health training. These details can help you find a therapist whose experience goes beyond general competence and aligns with the care you want.

Henderson has a growing mental health care community, with access to nearby Las Vegas adding more options. Even in a mid-sized market, affirming therapists may be easier to find when you include virtual appointments in your search. Some people prefer an office visit close to home, while others choose virtual therapy for more scheduling options. When comparing therapists, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading bios can also show how each therapist describes their style, specialties, and experience with LGBTQIA+ care.

Therapy in Henderson can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you compare therapists who are accepting new patients, review their bios, check whether they accept your plan, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse LGBTQIA+ therapists in Henderson, review fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
