LGBTQ+ covers a broad range of identities and sexualities. Within the community are individuals with a unique perspective and upbrining.
Therapy goes beyond labels to understand who you are as a person and the development of your identity. Maybe you've known who you are for a long time, but haven't been in an environment that encourages expression. Or maybe you're just now discovering yourself. Wherever you are in the process, therapy can help deepen insight into selfhood.
Therapy is a place to explore one's self and find deeper meaning in our thoughts, feelings, fantasies, and desires. For queer people, who have often been cast off into the outskirts of society, it's important for a therapist to be familiar with non-heteronormaitve ways of living.
Gender and sexuality are uniquely personal to each individual. Our ideas about gender and sexuality are formed in our earliest relationships and a person should have the freedom to explore these influences in a non-shaming environment.
