LGBTQIA+-affirming therapy is an approach that validates and supports your sexual orientation and gender identity as a natural part of who you are. Affirming providers create a space where you can address any concern — from anxiety and depression to relationship stress and identity exploration — without needing to justify or explain your identity. Many affirming therapists have completed specialized training in this approach.

Look for providers who specifically list LGBTQIA+ care as a specialty and describe their approach in their bio.
