LGBTQ+ Affirming Therapy
A safe place to bring all of you
At Holistic Psychology, affirming care is not one therapist's specialty. It is a standard for our whole practice. Every clinician on our team is trained in LGBTQ+ cultural humility and in evidence-based affirmative therapy, so you will not have to educate your therapist or wonder whether you are welcome.
What that means here
• Your identity is never treated as the problem.
• Your name and pronouns are respected from the first phone call.
• We understand the real stress of stigma, rejection, and having to stay on guard, and how it affects mental health.
• Your relationships, family structure, and community are honored as you define them.
Trained in evidence-based affirmative care
Our clinicians are trained in affirmative cognitive behavioral therapy, an evidence-based approach adapted specifically for LGBTQ+ people. It combines proven CBT skills with an affirming framework that addresses identity-based stress, builds coping and resilience, and strengthens supportive connections.
We can help with
• Anxiety, depression, and trauma
• Coming out, identity exploration, and questioning
• Gender exploration and transition-related support
• Family conflict, rejection, and chosen family
• Religious or spiritual harm, and reconnecting with meaning
• Relationships and couples, including all relationship structures
• Substance use, chemsex, and recovery in LGBTQ+ communities
(If anyone on the team writes letters for gender-affirming medical care, add a line here. Only if true.)
