LGBT therapists in Reno, NV

If you’ve felt unseen, misunderstood, or torn between belonging and authenticity, you’re not alone. Together, we’ll explore your story, build self-acceptance, and better understand the patterns and experiences that have shaped you. Our work will be guided by your goals, your pace, and what healing looks like for you, creating a path toward greater connection, empowerment, and inner peace. I strive to create a space where you can feel seen, heard, and accepted for who you are.

My name is Alan Hixon, and I am a Nevada Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). Prior to working as an independent contractor with mental health agencies and then transitioning to private practice in 2023, I worked as a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) for five years focused on providing case management and community-based support services. My private practice is conveniently located in Carson City, Nevada, and is easily accessible for people living in the surrounding rural communities. I offer evidenced based cognitive and behavioral outpatient psychotherapy treatment services, which includes individual therapy sessions and family sessions with the child or adolescent’s caregivers, and I offer individual psychotherapy treatment services for adults

I have been working in the mental health field for 14 years and practicing therapy for 5.
