Counseling for Manassas’s LGBTQ Community–Counselors and Therapists

The life coaches, counselors, and therapists at Thriveworks Manassas know that when people admit their truth to themselves and live their truth in their lives, their world often changes for the better. Admitting who you are emotionally, spiritually, physically, and sexually takes courage, and we are here to support you in your journey. Thriveworks Manassas offers LGBTQ informed therapy that is focused upon self-discover, acceptance, and safety. Our therapists and counselors are here for you.

LGBTQ Therapy: What Could It Look Like?

The therapists at Thriveworks Manassas may ask exploratory questions and give their clients the opportunity to share about their experiences. For example, a therapy session may survey:

  • What in your life is exciting now?
  • How is your living situation?
  • If you could, is there anything you would want to change about your life?
  • Where do you want to be in a year? Five years? A decade?
  • What brought you to the decision to meet with a counselor?

Counseling often involves self-discovery—learning about one’s own weaknesses and strengths, opportunities and challenges. People often discover or clarify what exactly they want from life, and they may implement practical steps to achieve their goals. For example, many people learn what they want from a romantic relationship and how to pass up unhealthy partners and pursue people with whom they connect well. Others learn how to hold to their truth while allowing their family and friends into their story.

The therapist’s job is often to make a space for you that is judgment-free and safe. Everyone needs a place where they can process life events and challenges without shame, and many find that counseling is that safe place where they can open up.

Topics that may arise in LGBTQ counseling:

  • “Coming out” issues
  • Dealing with discrimination and non-acceptance
  • Family concerns
  • Healthy communication
  • Self-esteem issues
  • Depression
  • Transcending gender roles
  • Gender and sexual identity
  • Dating and other relationships
  • Eating disorders
  • Addiction
  • Anxiety and stress
  • Past trauma and abuse

Appointments at Thriveworks Manassas for LGBTQ Informed Therapy

Think about what is going on in your life right now. Are you experiencing marginalization or discrimination? Are you feeling the stress of someone else’s definition of “normal”? The counselors at Thriveworks Manassas want you to know that we are sorry you are experiencing this negativity and that you are accepted here just as you are. You are not alone.

If you are ready to meet with a therapist or counselor, the staff at Thriveworks Manassas is ready to meet with you.

I believe my depression is coming from the lack of education, I have and the loss of so many jobs. It's finding but hard to keep a job. I'm embarrassed it has been hindering me for many years now I can't stand it I've been trying to get help for a while now and don't know where to go I am on suppression medication. I see a doctor every two weeks I have talked to him about this and until u was blacking the blue in the face. I think he sees it now. Thank good

I started with Thriveworks and Lisa 3-4 months ago and I was nervous about telling a "stranger" my deepest issues and things I'm not always comfortable admitting myself. I have to say she has been amazing through an really tough relationship break and other things I was or am going through in life. She makes you feel comfortable and truly listens, providing support and options for situations which allow me to be able to look at situations differently. She has made an incredible improvement on my life and I always look forward to meeting with her. It has become a breath of fresh air for me. She is amazing and I consider her a friend. You can't go wrong.

I worked with Lisa Cornelius for more than 6 months and she really is amazing. She helped me through my struggles by giving me strategies that could help me involve my well being. She is honest and she will connect with your situation by putting herself in your shoes. I've never connected with a therapist like I have with her. She really knows what she is doing. I highly recommend her!

A note of thanks to my counselor Lisa Cornelius. I have seen her for 2 years now and through our sessions an finding that I am a good person who has needs and a future that I never knew at 72 I coukd look forward to. Our lives go full circle sometimes and after bad things happen we start to think we have no right to try to be anyone but who others think we should be....not true! Hopefully Lisa and I can continue this journey and I can learn to relax in the real me and be content and happy with myself...thank you Lisa ....

Ms. Lisa is a very amazing counselor. She helps you understand and can relate to you, which makes you feel better. Her way of counseling is different from past counselor. It was more dull with my past counselor, but with Ms. Lisa it is different. It is better to me. I definitely recommend Ms. Lisa because everytime I leave I feel lighter and a little bit better. 😊
