The Joy of You
Hypnotherapist, CCHt,CHt, CMHt, NWP, EP, B.Msc
LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) individuals may seek hypnotherapy for various reasons, just like anyone else.
When it comes to LGBT-related concerns, hypnotherapy can provide a safe and supportive space to address topics such as coming out, self-acceptance, internalized homophobia or transphobia, dealing with discrimination, or resolving any underlying emotional issues related to one's sexual orientation or gender identity.
It is important to find a hypnotherapist who is knowledgeable about LGBT issues and creates an inclusive and accepting environment. This ensures that you feel comfortable discussing your concerns and that the therapist understands your unique experiences and needs.
Remember, hypnotherapy is a collaborative process between you and the therapist. It can help you access your subconscious mind, promote self-reflection, and facilitate positive changes in your life.
However, as with any therapy or treatment approach, it's essential to consult with a qualified professional to determine if hypnotherapy is suitable for your individual circumstances.

Philip Cooke
Psychologist, PhD
Providing LGBT-affirming psychotherapy and assessment services has been a core part of my training, research, and clinical practice for the past 8 years. My doctoral research and post-doctoral fellowship focused on the psychological well-being of queer men and LGBTQ-affirmative health care. I continue to teach in graduate programs and provide consultation on working with LGBTQ-identified individuals and couples. I have substantial expertise in the psychological effects of discrimination, the intersection of race and gender/sexuality, identity exploration, ethical nonmonogamy, psychosocial and medical gender transition, queer men’s issues, and queer relationship concerns.
As a clinician, my practice has consistently focused on the needs of queer people, particularly those who may be on the margins of the LGBTQ community, including trans and nonbinary folx, non-monosexual people (e.g., bisexual, pansexual), queer people of color, and polyamorous and non-monogamous individuals and relationships. I work to understand the effects of other identities (race, class, ability, age, etc.) on my patient’s concerns and tailor treatment accordingly.
