In my experiences working with the LGBTQ+ population, there is a strong community of support, but making transitions and being able to express your authentic self is also a challenge for a variety of reasons. The people around you are not always supportive and accepting, society can be oppressive and discriminatory, and finding people who are sensitive and understanding to your unique experiences is not always readily available. For adolescents and adults, I provide individual therapy that is empathic, compassionate, and accepting of wherever you are in your LGBTQ+ journey.
