Best LGBT Therapy

Queer people face more overt and implicit discrimination than their straight counterparts.

The queer community has come a long way since the Stonewall Riots of 1968. But that doesn’t mean that homophobia, biphobia, and transphobia aren’t still pervasive aspects of our culture. In an overwhelmingly cis- and heteronormative society, LGBTQ people face exhausting microaggressions and discrimination on a regular basis — which can result in mood disorders, anxiety, and depression.

We feel the struggle and all-too-relatable reasons why queer people need specific LGBT therapy to meet their needs.

1. Because you’re gender nonconforming and people keep asking about your junk.

2. Because you came out as bisexual five years ago and your mom keeps calling it a phase.

3. Because your parents still introduce your partner as your ‘friend’ at the family holiday party.

4. Because people keep asking “Who’s the man in your relationship?”

5. Because you’ve been set up on too many dates with straight friends’ other gay friend.

6. Because you just spent an hour explaining PrEP to your doctor.

7. Because insurance coverage is that much more complicated.

8. Because life is hard enough already!
