Queer Thrive (QT): Your Place to Belong

At QT, we believe every LGBTQ+ person deserves not just acceptance, but a true sense of belonging. We’re a nonprofit focused on resilience, emotional well-being, and building genuine community connections. Here, you don’t have to explain why you’re hurting or hide who you are—you’ll find people who understand your struggles, share your hopes, and stand beside you as you heal.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Meet The Founder

As Queer Thrive’s founder, I know the power of turning pain into purpose. After overcoming deep personal trauma, I left an executive career of 15 years and vowed to create what I once needed: a supportive community that empowers queer people to reclaim their worth and find their place in the world. I needed unconditional love and a family of choice to get me started and support me in my journey. Others do too. We must rewrite the false societal programming we were taught about ourselves in order to be fully alive. We must open up space inside us so that the love and joy that should be there can come back in.  

My own personal journey has been so profound that my purpose became clear–to be a healer, to bring non-religious spirituality and connection with the universe to the Queer community, to share the light inside me.  

My personal declaration is:   “I am a commitment to personal growth so that my gifts are available to the world around me.”  

Join me in this mission and in the rooms!
