Counseling with Queer, Non-Gender Conforming, and Transgender clients
I recognize and together we will address the impact of discrimination, stigma, and potential trauma related to LGBTQ+ identities.
I use trauma-informed approaches to promote a sense of safety.
Intersectionality: Understand and acknowledge the intersectionality of identities, including race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and disability.
I take into consideration the unique challenges faced by individuals with multiple marginalized identities.
Affirmative Therapeutic Approaches:
I use affirmative therapy approaches that validate and affirm clients' identities.
I work collaboratively with clients to explore their unique experiences and goals.
