LGBTQ+
“Be yourself. Everyone else is taken.”
— Oscar Wilde
Mental health concerns can effect anyone, but research has shown that the impact to the LGBTQ+ community is disproportionate due to stigma, stress from discrimination, and lack of access to competent health providers. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, you may have felt judged and misunderstood by mental health and medical providers, and maybe even unsafe.
Whether you are seeking counseling to explore your sexuality and/or gender expression, or to address any other life issue, you deserve a therapist who is sensitive to your unique challenges and will create a safe and non-judgmental space for you to process and explore your situation.
LGBTQ+ concerns include:
Coming out
Exploring sexual orientation
Exploring gender identity and expression
Adjusting to a loved one coming out
Family conflict / estrangement
Life transitions
Relationship difficulties
Loss and grief
Depression
Anxiety
