Allison Freeman
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHCA
As an LGBTQ-affirming therapist, my approach centers on creating a safe, understanding, and inclusive space for clients navigating the complexities of their lived identities. I am committed to fostering an environment where the diverse experiences within the LGBTQ community are acknowledged and celebrated.
In our sessions, we explore the unique challenges and joys associated with being LGBTQ, recognizing the impact of societal attitudes, discrimination, and the journey of self-discovery. Together, we work to validate and affirm each individual's identity, creating a supportive foundation for personal growth and self-acceptance.
My focus is on empowering clients to navigate issues such as coming out, building healthy relationships, and addressing mental health concerns specific to the LGBTQ experience. We discuss strategies for resilience, self-advocacy, and developing a strong sense of identity within the context of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or expression.
Through this affirming and informed approach, the goal is to assist individuals in embracing their authentic selves, fostering a sense of belonging, and navigating the various aspects of life with confidence and resilience. The journey involves validating the diversity within the LGBTQ community and promoting mental and emotional well-being through self-discovery and self-acceptance.
