Support for LGBTQIA+ and Transitioning Clients.
|
All of our therapists are proud to be supporters of the LGBTQIA+ communities. We believe that therapy is for all regardless of age, background, race, or sexual orientation. People who identify as part of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQIA+) community are unfortunately more likely to experience mental health conditions or face events that can seriously harm their mental health.
Transgender people may seek any one of a number of gender-affirming interventions, including hormone therapy, surgery, facial hair removal, interventions for the modification of speech and communication, and behavioral adaptations such as genital tucking or packing, or chest binding. All of these procedures have been defined as medically necessary by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health. Joslin Therapy offers therapeutic support and intervention for individuals considering or actively transitioning in the community. |
