Identity & LGBTQ+ therapy

For adults across NY & NJ

 

Looking for support regarding gender identity or sexual orientation?

Perhaps you’re questioning your identity or sexuality. Maybe a child or someone you love has recently come out to you and you’re unsure how best to embrace and cultivate fulfilling, productive, respectful relationships that honor your unique identity.

 

SOUND FAMILIAR?

  • Confusion or uncertainty about yourself or your identity

  • Experiences of rejection or isolation from people close to you

  • A desire to live in a way that feels aligned with your true self

  • Feeling inauthentic or “not queer enough”

  • A desire to support loved ones who may be struggling with identity or who are wanting to live in a way that feels true to them

This is a supportive, affirming, judgment-free space that celebrates the real you.

HOW IDENTITY & LGBTQ THERAPY WORKS

 

The way you view yourself dictates so much of your life—your relationships, your choices, and the way you think & feel. We recognize that those who identify as LGBTQ+, polyamorous, or in other non-traditional ways fashion face unique challenges in embracing their true selves. 

We want you to support you in feeling comfortable in yourself, in your relationships, and in the world. Our therapists can support you in cultivating new relationships, improving intimacy in existing ones, and, when necessary, mourning those that may undermine your self-esteem and identity.
