What Is LGBTQIA+ Affirming Therapy?

LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy centers the lived experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, and questioning individuals. It offers more than just tolerance—it provides:

• A safe and nonjudgmental space to explore identity

• Validation of your experiences with gender, sexuality, and relationships

• Support navigating coming out, family dynamics, and community connection

• Tools for managing anxiety, depression, trauma, and discrimination-related stress

Our affirming providers understand how marginalization and stigma can impact mental health—and we’re here to support your healing and growth.
