Seattle Counseling Service

Seattle Counseling Service (SCS) is a community resource that advocates, educates and serves to advance the social well-being and mental health of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender community. SCS began as a small grassroots effort in response to the need for a safer community. Founded in 1969, we were the first peer counseling agency of its kind in the U.S. We are now a licensed mental health agency with a focus on LGBTQ concerns.

SCS offers individual, family, couples, and group mental health therapy; addiction recovery services; and medication/psychiatric management services for the LGBTQ community. We also offer special populations consultations for the sexual minority, transgender, and youth communities.
