Mental Health Services
The San Mateo County Pride Center provides high quality, LGBTQ+ affirming mental health services to community members living throughout San Mateo County. Mental wellbeing services include individual therapy, relationship therapy, family therapy, group therapy, and case management. Our work is strength-based, trauma-informed, engaging both natural supports and the whole family whenever possible.
—————————————————————————-
We know that it can be difficult to find an affirming therapist, and we don’t want finances to also be a barrier to your care. To ensure our services are accessible as much as possible, we offer a sliding scale, pay-what-you-can model. Please note that availability is limited. While we are currently not set up to accept Medi-Cal or private insurance, this is something we are working towards. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to clinical@sanmateopride.org to learn more about how we can help.
Even if therapy with the Pride Center is not an option for you right now, we still offer referral services for:
-
- LGBTQ+ affirming providers vetted by the Pride Center who have therapy openings and take Medi-Cal or private insurance.
- Providers who can write a letter of support/WPATH letter
- Organizations that provide workshops or 1-1 support with name and gender marker change
Additional services we offer include:
-
- Housing assistance
- Employment resources
- Emergency food/shelter
- Gender affirming care resources and referrals
As a reminder- case management is still available and free of charge! Those services include support and service linkage for housing, healthcare, employment, legal aid, community events, and more. Please check out our case management page for more information on what can be provided.
Whether you need support with mental health, healthcare, or navigating resources throughout the county, we are here for you. Together, we can help you fulfill your goals and work towards health, happiness, and joy!
