From a Place of Caring and Expertise
A Community of Trained Therapists
The Bellwether Counseling collective is well-trained in sexuality, gender, and relationship dynamics. They are all compassionate, person-centered counselors who will collaborate with you to help you achieve your goals, make changes, and improve your life.
Comprehensive Approach
For The Whole You
Emphasis on Relationships,
Including Sexuality and Identity
People and relationships are complex, dynamic, and changeable. Ourselves intersect with our relationships, our work, our race, our gender, our sexuality, and with many other aspects that make up our identity. One area that most other clinicians shy away from is sexuality. Did you know that Human Sexuality is not required training for many counselors and therapists? This unfortunate reality means that many counselors lack the expertise and training to address this sensitive topic and often do so with value-laden, conservative, or mainstream ideas and not facts. That’s what Bellwether Counseling intends to remedy. Our clients feel confident bringing up any aspect of their life knowing that it will be met with warmth and understanding.

How Dr. Staats Cultivates A Community of Caregiving
Dr. Staats has earned her reputation as a leader in the mental health community through service and educating others. She has extensive training on integrating sexuality into counseling and has researched the importance of addressing sexuality in therapy. Treating the whole person or couple is what Dr. Staats strives to do. She teaches this to her students and colleagues. In the spirit of “lift as you climb,” Dr. Staats regularly coaches and encourages emerging professionals to become adept in addressing sex and sexuality and donates her time to local community mental health clinics. Dr. Staats is also the lead instructor at a national Sex Therapy Training Institute and has helped hundreds of counselors learn the basics and increase their comfort in tackling sex and sexuality therapeutically.
