LGBTQIA+
LGBTQIA+therapy virtually in Washington and Oregon
“Healing happens when people feel heard.”
– Amber Caldera LICSW, LCSW
You’re safe here
LGBTQIA+ isn’t just about fun parades and dazzling rainbows (but, we’re all here for that too), it’s also about navigating trauma, hate, violence, confusion, family issues, and bullying.
From struggling with sexuality or gender identity to dysphoria and transitioning– all on top of everyday life … yeah, it’s a LOT.
We’ve got you
Whether you’re just starting out on your journey or are well on your way toward your best life, we are here to provide tailored care where you can feel safe, understood, and truly respected.
We take your identity seriously and are ready to boost you up and help you build that game-changing, life-altering, IDGAF confidence.
We are here to provide gender-affirming care and letters, therapy tailored to LGBTQIA+ teens and adults, and above all, to support you through the tough stuff.
(Plus, we’re TOTALLY down to talk pride outfits if you’re into that)
You’re safe here
TLDR: We support you COMPLETELY.
We either identify as LGBTQIA+ ourselves or are strong allies who are ready to provide you with the highest level of care—tailored to your specific needs.
We are a safe space for the community and strive to ensure you feel respected and comfortable every session, as we know how opposite it can feel for LGBTQIA+ folx in the world.
Who this therapy is for:
→ Those who identify as LGBTQIA+
→ Those questioning their sexuality in search of support.
→ Individuals struggling with gender dysphoria and searching for a treatment plan (ie, gender-affirming therapy and letters)
→ LGBTQIA+ folks who have endured hate, trauma, and discrimination.
