Who We Are

Pathways Counseling Center is growing and expanding to meet the increasing demand for high-quality, affirming mental health care. Our LGBTQIA+ Program, led by Director Jen Reddig, LICSW, provides compassionate, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed therapy for individuals within the LGBTQIA+ community. We are proud to create a space where clients can bring their full selves and where clinicians can grow both personally and professionally in a supportive, mission-driven environment. Our team is committed to creating a safe space where healing and self-discovery can thrive.

Who We Support

What Makes Us Unique

• Many neurodivergent individuals face challenges finding therapists who truly understand the complexity of their identities and lived experiences.

Why Inclusive Care Matters

LGBTQIA+ adults face unique mental health challenges—research shows that:

• Lesbian, gay, and bisexual adults are over twice as likely to experience mental health issues compared to heterosexual adults. (SAMHSA, 2016)
• Transgender adults are nearly four times more likely to face mental health struggles than their cisgender peers. (Transgender Health, 2019)

Who We Are

Pathways Counseling Center continues to expand to meet the increasing demand for affirming, trauma-informed mental health care. Our LGBTQIA+ Program, led by Director Jen Reddig, LICSW, provides culturally responsive therapy that celebrates authenticity and fosters connection. We are passionate about helping individuals embrace who they are while navigating the challenges that come with identity, relationships, and self-acceptance.

Who We Support

Why Inclusive Care Matters

LGBTQIA+ adults face unique mental health challenges—research shows that:

• Lesbian, gay, and bisexual adults are over twice as likely to experience mental health issues compared to heterosexual adults. (SAMHSA, 2016)
• Transgender adults are nearly four times more likely to face mental health struggles than their cisgender peers. (Transgender Health, 2019)

These disparities often stem from identity exploration, family rejection, and unsupportive environments. That’s why affirming, culturally responsive care is essential.
