Empathy.   Intentionality.   Vulnerability.

Why We Were Founded

Queer Conscious Connections was founded with a simple goal: to create a safe space for singles to feel less alone, more empowered, and more self-aware as they navigate their unique dating journey. Dating, especially within the LGBTQIA+ community, can be a vulnerable and deeply personal experience. There are few life decisions as impactful on our future - the available data suggests that not only does the right partner increase our mental, emotional, and financial well-being, being with the wrong partner can cause us harm and waste years of our life. 
 

At Queer Conscious Connections, we specialize in LGBTQIA+ matchmaking and queer date coaching, offering support every step of the way. Together, we’ll make intentional choices that lead to meaningful, fulfilling connections.

What We Do

Our matchmaking and coaching programs were designed with your unique pain points in mind, such as:

  • Dating app burnout

  • Lack of clarity on why your relationships aren’t progressing to the next step

  • No longer enjoying dating and losing motivation to keep trying 

  • Breaking out of unhealthy mindsets and behavioral patterns

  • Questioning your gender or sexual identity 

  • Struggling to find exciting dates

  • Combatting feelings of rejection or insecurity 

  • Unsure of how to vet potential matches before emotionally investing


*All of our available services are completely customizable. We know that dating is an incredibly personal, individualized experience and we would welcome the opportunity to create a package tailored to your needs.

Elise Braunschweiger

Founder & CEO of Queer Conscious Connections

My professional background as an LGBTQIA+ matchmaker and date coach, combined with my personal experiences within the queer dating world, inspired me to establish Queer Conscious Connections. 
 

Whether you're navigating the complexities of finding your forever person, seeking queer matchmaking services to find intentional and meaningful connections, or looking for expert date coaching within the LGBTQIA+ community, I'm here to help. I've worked with a diverse range of individuals across the LGBTQIA+ spectrum, providing guidance and support to those who are single, seeking companionship, and eager to make positive changes in their dating lives.
 

My goal is to help anyone, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or relationship status, achieve a more enriching and satisfying love life—and, hopefully, enjoy the journey along the way. 
 

There are so few services founded by and made for the LGTBQIA+ community. I hope QCC is one step towards changing that.
