LGBTQ+
Gender and sexuality topics, quite frankly, have a long past when it comes to society and even in the counseling field.
First, sexuality and gender identity have come extremely far in the counseling field and in society. However, this does not mean that there is not work to be done. Instead of labeling or putting someone in a box by describing different emotions when it comes to sexuality and gender topics, I want to express to anyone reading this that counseling is a safe place for you. In therapy, all and anyone are welcome. You are not alone during this time. All the thoughts, emotions and events going through your head may be incredibly overwhelming and confusing, but you do not have to go through this alone.
You are valid.
In my practice work with the LGBTQ+ population. I will provide you a safe place to feel seen and hear, to know you are not alone, and process through any emotions, thoughts or symptoms you may be experiencing. As someone in the LGBTQ+ community myself, I understand on a personal (professional and ethical as well) level the importance and need for this. I am also able to provide HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) and GAS (Gender Affirming Surgery) letters for those who may need it.
Feel free to message me at brianna@renew-counseling.org or my number 407-479-8813 if you have any questions about mental health, counseling in general or would like to set up a session.
