What does LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Counseling mean?
Our therapist are here to not simply accept, but affirm and support you in the exploration of your sexual and gender expression. In this space, we only use the pronouns in which you identify. We are here for your relationship strides and struggles. Our sex-positive, queer-affirming therapist know the ins-and-outs of what you may want in support of your poly, straight, non-monogamous, married, queer, kink, or other romantic union.
What else can that look like?
While our support will look different for each client depending on your day-to-day concerns, we will support you through your identity exploration. That can be in:
Building Self-Esteem
Gender Expression and Transitioning
External Family Issues and Communication
Your Coming Out Process
Fertility and Parenting
We’re here for you through your ups and downs and know the toll oppressive forces and xenophobia can take on your well-being. We also know about the unique joys and struggles of your experience in the LGBTQIA+ community. If you’re non-binary, we’re here if you’re struggling with body dysphoria or relishing in body euphoria. We’re here if you’re stressed about starting a family with your partner. We’re here if you’re transitioning and worried about costs. We’re here if you’re struggling with conflicts within your peer group or looking to expand your own queer community. Our culturally competent therapist aim provide a safe space for you to be seen and discover your own unique needs.
