Creating an Affirming Space for Self-Exploration
We offer a Teen LGBTQIA Group where teens can confidently explore their unique identities and engage in affirming peer interactions.
Navigating the Intersection of Identity: Supporting LGBTQ+ Teens
When you experience depression or anxiety as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, you may encounter rejection, bullying, and feelings of not belonging. These daily challenges exacerbate feelings of sadness, low self-esteem, hopelessness, and even suicidal thoughts.
It is important to prioritize your health and happiness by finding a safe, supportive, and affirming space.
