POSITIVE CHANGE THERAPY
LGBTQ Therapy
Helping queer people in Los Angeles make positive, lasting, impactful change on their lives.
Gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans and queer folx can face specific challenges, often stemming from societal ignorance and bigotry, that can lead to emotional distress. Supportive LGBTQ Therapy can help.
You may struggle with many of the same issues that the general population has but also may face specific challenges that exist within our community, such as coming out, transitioning, family rejection, low self-esteem stemming from a constant barrage of negative societal messaging, higher rates of addiction & substance misuse, codependency and other issues. These issues can take a toll on you, leading to stress and maladaptive behaviors. Fortunately, you can learn techniques and coping skills to get a handle on these challenges.
Individual therapy with a safe, community-focused LGBT therapist who gets your specific challenges and needs can help you transform your life.
Supportive LGBTQ therapy can help you meet and conquer those challenges. Being able to work together with a collaborative LGBT therapist can help you face the issues that you feel stuck in, allowing you to start challenging old ways of thinking and generating courage to enact lasting change that propels your life into a positive direction.
Gay-affirming therapy in Los Angeles can gives you the freedom to live your most authentic life.
Imagine being able to release those societal bonds that have held you down for so long. It’s a freedom worth fighting for.
How Does LGBTQ Therapy Work?
