LGB and Trans Identities
We welcome all gender identities and gender expressions!
We affirm all sexual, romantic, and other attraction orientations!
We take pride in offering safe and professionally trained therapy services for those that identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and all others. We provide services for individuals (9+), relationships, and adult families that are at any stage in their journey of discovery to pride. We are happy to work collaboratively with other affirming practitioners to increase the benefits of your care.
Therapeutic Services
Identifying outside of the hetero- and/or cisnormative may cause seemingly endless challenges, such as adjusting to changes, working through the “coming out” or disclosure process, navigating self/family/societal acceptance, healing from traumas, and so much more. As therapists who are also in the community, we understand how important it is to have access to competent and affirming mental healthcare. Whether you are looking for individual, relationship, or family counseling, we feel confident in helping you with challenges such as:
Coping with social stigma, bias, and homo/transphobia
Understanding gender and sexual/affectional identities and expressions
Guidance and insight through your process of medical or social transition
Navigating challenges unique to LGBT stressors
Depression
Relationship(s) - intimate/platonic/family
When a family member is LGBTQ+ (Gender and Sexual/Affectional Diverse)
"Coming out" - disclosure to family/friends/others
Parenting an LGBTQ+/GSD identifying youth
Anxiety
Navigating any questions, concerns, or fears
Help finding the paths that feel most authentic to you
And more!
Informed Consent Model: Gender Confirming Medical Care
We support the Informed Consent Model for gender affirming care and will work as a facilitator in the process. We are willing and excited to work collaboratively with other affirming practitioners to help along your journey. Click here to learn about the Informed Consent Model of care.
We can provide mental health assessment and documentation requested or required for any reason, including access to gender confirming surgery and hormone treatment. We write letters of support to surgeons, doctors, insurance, etc. Most documentation can be created in one session, though if you’d like or are required to have ongoing care, you’re most welcome to continue working with us.
