Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
LGBTQIA-specific therapy provides affirming care for individuals whose gender identity and/or sexuality generally differ from those who identify as cisgender (gender and/or expression aligns with sex assigned at birth) and heterosexual (attracted to the opposite sex).
Stigma and “minority stress”, including experiences of violence, discrimination, prejudice, and other negative social encounters due to gender identity, expression, or sexuality, contribute to a greater likelihood that people in this community will develop mental health challenges.
LGBTQ therapy provided by licensed mental health professionals is a valuable resource for members of the LGBTQIA community. Finding the right therapist who understands the challenges of gender transition, gender nonconforming identity, and discrimination can be critical to resolving mental health issues, relationship issues, and anger management. LGBTQ therapy offers a safe, supportive space to discuss lesbian, gay, bisexual, and gender nonconforming concerns, providing immediate help and affirming care.
