What Is LGBTQIA+ & Identity-Affirming Therapy?
Identity-affirming therapy is designed to support individuals exploring or living within LGBTQIA+ identities while providing a safe space to process challenges, celebrate strengths, and navigate life transitions.
Therapy can address concerns related to gender identity, sexual orientation, transition, relationships, family dynamics, community connection, discrimination, mental health, and personal growth. It can also provide support for individuals seeking gender-affirming medical care and documentation.
Our Approach to LGBTQIA+ & Identity-Affirming Therapy
Our clinicians provide affirming, inclusive care for LGBTQIA+ individuals, transgender and nonbinary clients, those exploring identity, and people in kink-allied, polyamorous, and ethically non-monogamous relationships.
We understand that identity-related concerns often intersect with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, family dynamics, and life transitions. Our therapists create a space where clients can explore these experiences openly and without judgment.
We utilize evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic psychotherapy, EMDR, somatic therapies, and clinical assessments. We also provide gender-affirming surgery assessments and letters for individuals pursuing top surgery, bottom surgery, breast reductions, and radical breast reductions.
Our goal is to provide care that is affirming, respectful, and centered on your goals.
