Who is Inquiry Counseling?

Jack D. Haden, LCSW (he.him)

Hello! I'm Jack, a queer, trans, and neurodivergent therapist based in Salt Lake City, UT.  For over 20 years I've worked in various roles within the queer community. In 2014, I graduated from the University of Utah with my MSW and have primarily worked in individual counseling settings with LGBTQIA+  teens and adults. I've had the privilege of companioning clients in their gender transition goals, including TGD youth as a Certified Transgender Treatment Provider in the State of Utah in compliance with Utah State Code 58-1-603. My professional interests include identity development through a multicultural lens; anxiety/depression; deconstruction of internalized oppression; and life transitions. Ultimately, though, my passion lies in offering a safe space for folx who are seeking to find and share their own story. 

 

As a self-described “introvert supreme,” I can often be found curled up with a book alongside my cat, Ginsberg, in my spare time. I also enjoy checking out indie films, exploring the many local bookstores Salt Lake has to offer, attending concerts (the rowdier the better), and listening to far too many podcasts while cross-stitching or playing video games.
