Make your practice the one LGBTQ+ clients trust on sight.
The training, the confidence, and the cred to back it up.
Don't feel like scrolling? Here's the gist.
- Any practice can say it welcomes LGBTQ+ clients. Most have nothing to back it up.
- I go through your practice top to bottom — your team, your paperwork, your website, your space.
- You get the exact updates to make, and everything you need to make them.
- You and a helper on your team make them. I verify every piece.
- About 8 weeks, about an hour a week, while you keep running your practice.
You stop hoping your practice is good at this. You know it is, and so does everyone looking.
Book a Discovery CallI know you want to do better.
You wouldn't be here if you weren't already an ally. The question isn't whether you mean it. It's whether your practice shows it.
Because Queer clients vet you before we ever book. We scan your site. We ask around — because the healthcare system has failed us enough times to make us cautious. We need more than "affirming" on a homepage. We need proof.
Your practice can be the one that has it.
There's nothing else like this.
Everywhere else, this is a training. Your team takes the modules, you get a certificate, and you're done.
Nobody comes and looks at your practice.
I do. Your forms, your website, your space, your team — I go through all of it myself, and I verify every piece before your practice earns the seal. As far as I can find, no one else in this field is doing that.
It's not a one-and-done. That's what makes the seal mean something.
And once you're certified, I'm not going anywhere.
I've been training therapists on this for 16 years.
I changed my whole life to do this work. Hopped off the plane at LAX with a dream and my cardigan to get a master's in LGBTQ+ Clinical Psychology, did my clinical training at the LA LGBT Center (the world's largest provider of LGBTQ+ services), and have spent the 16 years since translating my super-niche education into something every therapist can actually use.
Proud Practice is the thing I've poured the most of myself into. Which is why I want you good at this — not just certified on paper, good in the room. I stick around until you get there.
Skim everything else. Read this.
Each piece makes your practice genuinely safer for Queer clients. All nine together make your practice impossible to overlook.
The work I do on your practice.
Training For Your Whole Team
Every clinician trained, on their time.
The LGBTQ+ Core Clinical Training, self-paced for your whole clinical team. Language, identity, intake, and the clinical lens.
Your team levels up together.
Your Forms, Reviewed
Send your paperwork. Get back the fixes.
Your intakes, your consent, anything a client fills out. I read every line of it and send back the exact updates you need.
You'll know it's right, not hope it is.
Your Website, Reviewed
I read your site like a Queer client.
A custom video review from me, walking your site the way a Queer client reads it. Plus the copy, written and ready to go up.
That's where a Queer client decides.
The support that keeps it moving.
Your LGBTQ+ Liaison
Delegate like a Boss.
You'll pick someone with a passion for LGBTQ+ mental health. They partner with me and carry your whole team through this.
Wait until people find out. Epic flex.
Live Case Consultation
Your clinicians, your real cases, me.
A live session with your team on the cases they are actually holding. Plus weekly 1:1 time with me, and email in between.
I'm here for you and responsive af.
Gender Confirmation Referral Training
Your team can already write these.
Your clinicians were never taught to write a gender confirmation letter. I walk them through it and hand them the template.
Your team stops dreading the ask.
What shows up for the people you serve.
Your Space Gets A Queer Glow-Up
Done-for-you signs, ready to print.
Queer clients scan your space and decide. Pride symbols and signs, all of it made. You print them, I tell you where they go.
Pro tip: turn it into a team hang.
Your Seal And Your Listing
Proof on your site. A spot clients find.
A Proud Practice seal for your website, office, and email signature. Plus your own listing in the Proud Practice directory.
Clients find you, and they know.
Your LGBTQ+ Resource Guide
A referral list your team can hand out.
Your Queer clients also need doctors, community, and everyday places to exhale. I hand you the whole national referral list.
Always somewhere to point them.

The path to certified.
Choose your LGBTQ+ Liaison.
The one who partners with me and carries this through for you.
Everyone takes the training.
Self-paced, on their own schedule, no calendars to wrangle.
Your paperwork, to me.
Your intake and your client forms. I tell you what to change.
Show your Pride.
Your space, your website, your presence. I give you what you need.
And then, BOOM. You're certified.
Your seal goes up, your listing goes live, and you're in the Proud Practice family.
Built around your actual schedule.
You're not putting your practice on hold to get certified. You'll see clients, run your business, and earn the credential — all at the same time.
Each week opens with a short video from me: here's the focus, here's what to do. You and your Liaison carry it out whenever it fits in your week, and send it my way when it's done. I verify each piece as it comes in, so nothing piles up at the end.
About 8 weeks, with catch-up time built in. You get 12 weeks of access to the program and to me.
Your team's training runs alongside all of this — self-paced, so nobody's coordinating calendars.
Questions in between? Email me. Want to talk something through? Grab a time on my calendar.
Priced to your practice.
Every practice is a different size and shape, so certification is priced to yours. Book a call and I'll tell you exactly what it looks like for your team.

Honestly, I've been bugging Eric to bring this program to our community for years — so joining the founding cohort feels like a long time coming, and we couldn't be more excited. We are so excited to build something really intentional — a place where our LGBTQ+ community can easily find us and learn about who we are. As a team of allies and community members, we can't wait to pour into this work and create the kind of space where every Queer person can walk in and immediately feel it — not just safe, but truly welcome.
It has been a pleasure to work with Eric on a number of LGBTQ+ educational and advocacy events. He's not only an expert in the field, he is approachable and his teaching and speaking style meets people where they are at and invites them into conversation. His open and gracious spirit isn't always found in this line of work and I know it's part of what makes him so successful at what he does.
Eric Sullivan is an excellent communicator, always clear, prompt, and kind. He is a true professional and a pleasure to work with!
You might be wondering.

Gurl, I hear you. I do all of this while running my own practice, so I made sure it works with a Badass Boss's schedule.
Figure about an hour a week, sometimes less, and some weeks nothing at all. Bonus with your Liaison — they help you get this done.
You're welcome.
-
Cool, I've got you. And if you've done a lot but don't know if it's enough? I've got you too.
I'm not scoring you on how good an ally you are. Most of us were never taught this — that's not a character flaw, it's a gap in our training as a field.
Wanting to do better is the only prerequisite.
-
Glad to hear it. For reals.
Here's my question though: who told you? If it's your own read, that's a guess. A good-hearted one, but a guess.
That's my job. I look, I tell you what's good and what could be better. And if you prove me right and you're already crushing it? Sweet. Now you've got the seal to prove it to everyone else.
-
If you treat anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD — guess what, you've got Queer clients.
We're not coming to you because we're Queer. But who we are shapes every part of our mental health. And if one of your current clients comes out? Your team is fully ready, and nobody has to refer them out.
The field already requires you to be competent with us, specialty or not. So you're covered either way.
-
About 8 weeks, with catch-up time built in. Most practices land right around there.
There's no deadline on the program itself — take the time you need. What's on the clock is your 12 weeks of calls and emails with me, and you can add more if you want it.
-
Nope. Once you're certified, you're certified.
There's a light annual check-in to keep it current — you keep doing the community work you're already doing, and new hires get trained as they come on. That's it.
The seal doesn't expire on you. I just stay in it with you.
-
Then don't yet. Start with the training.
Your team takes the LGBTQ+ Core Clinical Training and comes out ready for the Queer clients already sitting on their caseload. That's real on its own, and it's the best place to start.
Then book a call when you want the rest.
The best part isn't the seal.
LGBTQ+ clients find you and exhale before the first session.
Your Queer staff stop wondering whether this place is safe for them, too.
Other practices refer their LGBTQ+ clients to you, because you are the one they trust.
And your team stops guessing, because they finally know what to do in the room.
Your therapy practice's full Queer glow-up.
Become the practice Queer clients trust before they walk in.
