Gay-Friendly Therapy in Austin, TX
A welcoming and supportive environment that cares for the carers
Therapy for Parents of LGBTQIA+ Children
Life in ATX moves at a rapid pace. People are constantly coming and going, and it’s easy to feel lost in the crowd. You may feel like just another person among the many, but you're a unique individual with your own struggles, challenges, joys, and triumphs. If you’re raising a child who identifies as LGBTQ+, you are on a journey filled with many twists and turns, complex stressors, and distinctly unique joys.
Supporting you as you advocate for your child is my priority, and I have had the privilege of working with parents just like you from across the Lone Star State. Our sessions will provide a supportive environment where you can process difficult feelings such as grief or confusion. Our work together will help you gain insight into your child’s experiences and build your confidence so you can connect with your child even more authentically than before. We’ll practice evidence-based tools and strategies so you can live your life on your own terms and not be held captive by negative thoughts.
I support parents who have a child who has come out as LGBTQIA+.
Raising a child who identifies as LGBTQIA+ is a life filled with unique joys and complex stressors. But in the middle of school meetings, appointments, identity discovery, your work and household chores, who is supporting you?
WHAT WE’LL DO TOGETHER
Counseling for parents of LGBTQIA+
children can help you:
Advocate for your child
You are the best advocate for your child. But you need to be able to process, too. I provide a safe space for you to be heard. A therapeutic environment where you can practice new tools that give you more clarity and help you to connect with your kids.
Say the hard things
I provide a deeply supportive environment where parents don’t have to be afraid to voice their true feelings, like grief or confusion, without judgement. Together, we’ll work through all of them, so that you can connect with your children even more authentically than you have before.
Practice self-compassion
I see you — you’re out there doing your best. This can be tough. Through our therapeutic counseling, we’ll help you develop tools to practice your self-compassion skills. By building a better connection with yourself, you’ll be able to authentically connect with your children in a way that makes you proud.
Together, we'll get to know what's going on inside, causing you anxiety or stress. Then we’ll work on building a better connection with your child.
