LGBTQIA+

Spilling the Thera-Tea

KathyDan and Jess had a great chat this week about the LGBTQIA+ community. Jess shares some history on how the civil rights movement started providing gay rights and KathyDan defines what all those letters stand for. The ladies discuss how growing up gay can inherently create trauma and the importance of finding a therapist who is experienced in supporting and affirming LGBTQIA+ identity while also providing meaningful access to resources and supports that will allow the individual Ito thrive. The Asked and Answered listener question hit home for KathyDan this week as she shared some ideas on how to better manage a child’s (and parent’s) anxiety about leaving home for college.
