Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD, PLPC, LAC
LGBTQIA+ mental health isn't a one-size-fits-all model. Queer BIPOC individuals navigate a complex tapestry of systemic oppression, discrimination, and marginalization, which can significantly impact mental health and well-being. The queer community is twice as likely to deal with depression, anxiety, and suicidal behavior due to stigma, prejudice, family rejection, harassment, and a host of other struggles. If you are suffering, please know you are NOT alone! You do not have to suffer in silence. Call or email to request a FREE Phone Consultation today!

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) issues therapy, also known as LGBT-affirmative therapy or LGBTQ+ counseling, provides LGBT community members with support and understanding tailored to their unique experiences and difficulties. LGBT-affirmative treatment seeks to create a secure and welcoming environment where clients can explore their identities, resolve concerns about their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression, and work toward greater self-acceptance and well-being.
Therapists who provide LGBT-affirmative therapy know the potential effects of heteronormativity, cisnormativity, and other forms of prejudice on their clients. They endeavor to foster an accepting, affirming, and nonjudgmental environment of diverse gender and sexual identities.
Not all therapists have specialized training or experience working with LGBT issues. If you are looking for LGBT-affirming therapy, it is recommended that you seek out therapists who advertise their expertise in this area or inquire about their experience with LGBT clients during the initial consultation.
Overall, LGBT-affirmative therapy aims to assist LGBT individuals in navigating their unique challenges, developing resilience, and fostering positive mental health and well-being in a secure and affirming therapeutic environment.
