About this place Seattle Counseling Service for Sexual Minorities

Seattle Counseling Service for Sexual Minorities has spent nearly 45 years helping the LGBTQ+ community, making it one of the oldest mental health organizations of its kind.

It started as a division of the Dorian Society, then spun off into its own agency. Now it just focuses on mental health services for LGBTQ+ people.

This isn't a place to grab a drink, but it's a critical resource for LGBTQ+ travelers who might need therapy or counseling while in Seattle. If you're looking for ongoing care, a one-off session, or just some guidance during your trip to the Pacific Northwest, the staff here gets it. They've been specializing in sexual minorities for decades, so they understand the particular challenges that come with that.

You'll find them on Pine Street, downtown. For anyone traveling and needing mental health support, having a place you can trust, a place that affirms who you are, can make all the difference. Check out their website at seattlecounseling.org for more on how to connect with them.

Facilities are modern in well maintained, they have both male and female providers to choose from. However, I suspect all medical records collected from this location are currently being used by the current administration. Be sure be sure to ask your provider how to limit information sharing before you start your visit.

While I am generally happy with the services, their check in process is excruciatingly annoying. They have an entire questioner you have to fill out and its all ways the same even after several visits, and they ask questions you shouldn't have to answer. Let alone answer them again and again. They have my records at this point, why do I have to answer questions that haven't changed. I have given them my preferred name, I have given them my pronouns, it is reduntant that when they have given me vacations they ask me when I was last vaccinated. They're checkin-system/record keeping needs to be worked.

I had a walk-in at this clinic today and couldn't have wished for a better experience! I came around 3:45 pm, a bit tight since you shouldn't arrive past 4pm for walk-ins, but I got lucky as it was very quiet today. Jules/July welcomed me at the reception, replied to each of my questions quickly and competently and even had time for a light hearted chat here and there. I was asked to give my ID for a copy and to fill out a bunch of questions at a computer, but you get through them fast and easily and they all make sense to be asked for the purpose of STI testing. After only 10 minutes of waiting I got called in and the very friendly Cat brought me in, had me get comfortable and went through a few questions with me, listening carefully to all I had to say and replying to each of my worries patiently. We talked about my risks and needs and I got all the tests I came for. I was asked to take some swabs in the bathroom and then Susannah came in to discuss a few more questions and more specific worries, which she also replied to patiently and empathically. The blood draw was very competent, fast and pain free and nowhere in the whole process was any rush or impatience from the staff. I can only recommend to speak very openly about everything, you will not feel judged about having a lively sexlife or specific issues you might feel ashamed of. Thank you so much for today, if I ever need to I'll come back immediately. PS: Bring a book since I was told usually waiting times are long, and your own water since I haven't seen any water dispenser there.

Awesome people! Staff was super understanding and kind and my doctor was very informative and nice! Thank you Dr.Harrmann. I am usually pretty scared of dealing with healthcare but I felt like this appointment was such a breeze. They even gave me a doctor’s notes later that day when I felt like I needed one. Wait times are not that crazy for a downtown clinic. Bring a book or a game and be prepare to wait for an hour or two and you won’t have any complaints. The results from your appointment are super easy to access. My only issue is how complicated parking was. Bonus points- the views!! The view from the waiting room and from the doctor’s offices are so nice!! If you find yourself getting impatient just have a look and breath! And maybe space out more time for your appointments next time.

They are professional and caring. Testing is pretty quick. They check up on you and see how you are doing. First you check in, get a number, then you go on the computer and answer sexual health questions. Love coming here. Sometimes they have studies as well for you to get paid.

Got there within the last 5 minutes that it was supposed to be open. I know I was cutting it close but they closed early. Understandable, but still upsetting considering I hurried here
