LGBT therapists in Carson City, NV

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.

Hello, I’m Dr. Andrew Buchanan, a licensed clinical psychologist in Nevada. I earned my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Palo Alto University in 2021 and became licensed to practice independently in Nevada in 2025.

I provide compassionate, evidence-based care for adults facing a wide range of mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and other serious mental illnesses. I also specialize in cognitive rehabilitation and remediation for individuals experiencing cognitive changes related to brain injury, developmental disorders, or psychotic disorders.

My professional experience includes providing psychological services in nonprofit mental health agencies, county behavioral health programs, and state-operated forensic facilities. In addition to psychotherapy, I offer psychological and neurocognitive evaluations when appropriate.

I also enjoy working with caregivers who are experiencing stress or burnout related to their caregiving duties. Supporting those who dedicate themselves to caring for others is an important part of my practice.

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.
