Gay Teen Therapy
Parenting a Gay Teen
Your strong, creative, amazing teen has finally spoken out loud the words that somewhere in the back of your mind you knew were coming, “Mom, Dad, I’m gay!” Or questions of gender identity are coming to the forefront. Suddenly your are trying to understand terms such as gay, lesbian, pansexual, gender nonconforming, and ACE.
These declarations and discoveries are the first steps of a journey that is filled with high emotions that can run the gamut from confusion, shock, disbelief, rejection, and anger... to acceptance, peace, understanding, and concern.
It is important at this potentially fragile time for both you and your teen to connect with a therapist who specializes in working with LGBTQ teens and their families.
As your therapist, my training and experience will assist you to build awareness and openness, provide practical tools and create support so your entire family can grow through this experience, creating an even closer and more supportive family connection.
