Since
1978, the "DGSS Institute" has been providing full-time,
seven-days-a-week professional counseling not exclusively, but largely
for gay, lesbian, and bisexual people. Its full German name is
"Institut für Lebens- und Sexualberatung der Deutschen
Gesellschaft für Sozialwissenschaftliche Sexualforschung (DGSS)",
which may explain why its shortened form "DGSS-Institut" became quickly
popular in Germany. In plain English, we are the gay counseling
institute attached to the renowned "German Society for Social
Scientific Sexuality Research" (short:  DGSS).
Hence we can effectively base our counseling on sound sexological,
psychological, sociological, and, if and when required, medical,
knowledge: our counselors are openly gay professionals from those
fields. Our work has been described in a number of books and other
technical publications, including doctoral theses. Since 1983, AIDS-
and HIV-counseling, including testing, is also being provided. By now,
more than 33,000 clients have received counseling.Founder Rolf Gindorf. Director since 2010 Dr. Jakob Pastoetter

Many
people need at some time in their lives professional help. So may you.
Being gay or lesbian, or bi, does not in any way make you a less
valuable, less lovable, less able person. Don't let anyone tell you
otherwise. Ever. Whatever your questions or problems may be: why not
try us for FREE help?
