Online LGBTQ+ therapy in Minneapolis and throughout MN for queer, trans, and nonbinary adults.

Therapy without worrying if your queerness will be ignored.

You’re emotionally supporting everyone else. Who’s emotionally supporting you?

You’ve been so busy ensuring everyone around you is happy that you feel like you’ve lost yourself. Other people see you as a success. You get told you’re great a lot, you just don’t often get told you’re good enough. That you don’t need to keep doing more.

This is even more challenging as a LGBTQ+ person who compromises parts of yourself for other people’s comfort. Whether you’re newly questioning your identity or you’ve been out for years, you’re trying to figure out where you fit in this world and who you are.

You’ve thought about therapy before, but you keep thinking you should be able to handle things on your own. In fact most days you feel happy, so it makes it all the more confusing. You second-guess yourself thinking, “I had a good day today, so obviously I don’t need therapy.” This never leads you to the confidence you’ve been missing.

Hi I’m Dr. Jenna Brownfield

Jenna-Brownfield-LGBTQ-Therapist-MN

I’m a licensed psychologist in Minnesota. I love partnering with queer and trans adults (18+) to understand and celebrate their whole selves. 

It’s all too common for LGBTQ+ folks to doubt ourselves or face mental health struggles. I believe in a future in which every queer and trans person is cherished and is thriving.

Together we can help you clearly sense that your identities and your being are valuable. That’s why I honor what LGBTQ+ people know to be true: Queer and trans folks are powerful, resilient, and joyful. You deserve a therapist who gets that. 

How I can help you:

I offer online therapy in Minneapolis and across Minnesota. That means no matter where you are, as long as you have a secure wifi connection, you can get the LGBTQ-affirming support you need.
