Sexual Minority Counseling
Discover and Embrace Your True Self with Our Sexual Minority Counseling
Are you a member of the LGBTQIA+ community struggling with discrimination and prejudice, your identity, gender, or life choices? Whether you identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or another sexual minority, navigating a heteronormative society can present significant challenges. At Alternative Psychotherapy Services, Dr. Lynn Rosenthal and her team offer specialized support tailored to your unique experiences.
Our licensed counselor provides sexual minority counseling and is dedicated to providing a safe, compassionate space where you can explore and embrace your identity. We understand that each person’s journey is different, and we respect your pace and comfort level as you work through various aspects of your life.
Common Areas We Deal With:
- Coming-Out Support: We provide a supportive environment to help you share your true self with friends, family, and colleagues. Using the knowledge of identity development in stages, counseling can assist you in the journey of self-discovery.
- Questioning Sexual Orientation: Whether you’re coming to terms with your sexual orientation, our counselors offer guidance to help you understand and accept your feelings.
- Identity Development: Our services are designed to help you guide and know your sense of identity in a supportive and non-judgmental setting.
- Addressing Social Stigmas: We help you confront and cope with societal pressures, stereotypes, and biases.
- Acceptance Challenges with Loved Ones: If you’re struggling with acceptance from friends or family, we offer strategies and support to improve these relationships.
- Enhancing Interpersonal Relationships: Our counseling can help build and maintain fulfilling relationships with others, encouraging deeper connections.
Understanding these things are personal and sensitive, so we aim to create an environment free from pressure where you can openly discuss your concerns and goals. Our approach is centered on providing acceptance and encouragement, helping you build confidence and comfort in yourself.
