My trans spouse and I go here for couples therapy. We are so happy we took initiative to fix issues in our marriage! It has helped us both as individuals and as a couple. Our therapist does a great job of caring for us and guiding us in all aspects of our lives.

I have been working with my therapist, Kayla, for about a year now. She is always nonjudgmental and respectful, and I feel she genuinely cares for her patients. Im glad to have found a therapist who is knowledgeable about and accepting of LGBTQIA+; they are not as common as youd expect. Lastly she has been very accommodating whenever I need extra support. I highly recommend Kayla.

I cant speak to Connally Counseling as a whole. I know Ive heard questionable things that show up in other reviews as well... I can only personally speak to one therapist. With that in mind, my experiences with Kayla have been wonderful. She creates a space that feels safe and comfortable and is helpful for LGBTQ and nonmonogamous support.

I’ve been going to Connally Counseling for almost a year now, and I’ve been seeing Hannah the entire time. I’ve been to therapy in the past, but I never felt completely comfortable or like I had clicked with the therapists. After my first appointment, I knew this was going to be a great place. Hannah is incredibly warm and compassionate, but still pushes me to be my best self. I originally went in for help dealing with my gender identity and a desire for gender affirming surgery. Hannah has been paramount in this process, but has also helped me make great strides in other aspects of my life. I highly recommend Connally Counseling’s services.

I saw a very knowledgeable and empathetic therapist here for 18 months, but ultimately Connally Counseling has some practices that I believe are not right. After this amount of time with my therapist, they told me within the space of half an appointment that because I had an issue they don’t know how to treat, this would be our last appointment. I do not even really have this issue, at least not in a way that is dangerous to myself, and I explained that this could be confirmed if they had spoken to any of any of the doctors who treat me. However my therapist did not care about this or even whether the issue they insisted I had was formally diagnosed—and during a legitimate evaluation I had afterwards, it was not. But I was let go abruptly with a few names of specialists in this disorder that I do not have, and literally none of them could accept me as a client anyway. I also found out later that my therapist let me go because I was not making “adequate progress,” despite their assuring me that progress in therapy is not linear and can take a long time.After a few weeks, I was not doing well mentally, was in a very stressful situation, and the COVID shutdown had begun, so I reached out to my therapist and asked if we could just continue for a few more weeks given the circumstances and they flat out said no. While I do not think they handled it appropriately, my therapist was also young and not fully licensed. Given the abruptness of “dropping” me I wonder if they were told to do this asap. I have reflected extensively on whether I did anything wrong or inappropriate, and I do not think I ever did. Either way their supervisor should have actually communicated with me and/or made sure this process was done in an appropriate way. Being told to leave by this therapist that I trusted and thought I was making good progress with, and then not being referred to anyone or helped during a difficult time was harmful. They probably do a good job treating things like mood disorders but if you need longer term help or have a more complex issue I dońt recommend them.

I came here for a letter for transgender surgery. The plus side, I felt like they were really willing to do whatever it took to help me get my letter and emphasized with my struggles with insurance requirements. The downside, they had their own biases--I said I was very much not interested in a hysterectomy and it was important to not to have one, and they replied that all trans people want that. Um, did you not just hear me, and lots of people dont, in fact. So it was a mixed experience. Some non-binary openedop in addition to their trans experience would bump up the rating and make it pretty good.

I’ve been going to therapy here with Hannah for a couple of months now. She’s amazing, and I absolutely love the fact that Connally Counseling embraces and knows a great deal about LGBTQ+ people and the specific struggles we face. Hannah is trusted, understanding, and challenges me in all of the right ways!

Update: Dalton Connally is highly unprofessional and will endanger your mental health at her own benefit. DO NOT TRUST. She commented on my original review that she would like to address my concerns, but then in email started to gaslight me and told me I had other options for counseling (which I didn’t because of lack of providers taking my insurance). She needs to get her license revoked. I was dropped as a client the day I had an appointment. Turns out my therapist here wasn’t fully licensed and it was disclosed 3 months into seeing him. Highly don’t recommend. P.S. I am non-binary and Dalton kept misgendering me, even though I wrote in the client form I’m non-binary.

Was rejected due to a doctors unwillingness to work with insurance their practice takes. I feel mistreated and lied to since I was expecting to be helped but instead was rejected. They do not deserve stars. No one should continue the cycle of social economical abuse and be allowed to practice as a therapist.PS. To the owner who wants to be little the situation. I was specifically told by one of you clinicians that you could bill my insurance but that you have chosen to no longer take patients with my insurance at this time. It is sad that you would like to attempt to justify yourself with bureaucracy. When you know that your statements are false which is why you asked me to contact you privately.

Always a wonderful experience with the staff here, highly recommended for anyone looking for LGBTQ+ specialized therapists in the Ann Arbor area!

If you are trans, DO NOT GO HERE. My therapist lied to me regarding HRT and withheld a referral to an endocrinologist.
