Our Collaboration.
As an LGBTQIA+ affirmative therapist and parent, I am passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ folks navigating parenthood. Navigating parenting as a queer parent is full of joy and unique challenges. For many non-bio/non-gestational parents, non-binary, and trans parents, their experience presents additional challenging layers that may include feeling invisible, othered, and dealing with microaggressions. Many LGBTQIA+ parents face navigating this stage, encountering a void of support addressing their nuanced experiences. I aim to help fill this void by providing connection, solidarity, awareness and resources for clients who are LGBTQIA+ parents. I am committed to researching and sharing best practice guidelines for fellow therapists working with this population and will continue expanding and updating this information frequently.
