- Navigating complex family dynamics
- Exploring gender and sexual identity
- Exploring gender identity and sexual identity while in a relationship
- Career and workplace challenges
- Dating and marriage
- Body image concerns related to transitioning and gender identity
- Integrating cultural and religious identities
- Exploring polyamory, sex and kink
- Sexual health concerns/HIV/serodiscordant relationships
We also support family members who want to support their loved one and to process and accept their loved one's gender and sexual identity.
At New Moon Psychotherapy we understand the unique difficulties that come with diverse identities and intersections. Our therapists have specialized training and some have lived experience in the LGBTQ2S+ community. This offers a unique perspective and affirming, inclusive, and stigma-free support. We value the diversity of human identities and the fluidity of sexual and gender expression.
