LGBTQIA Counseling
What is LGBTQ Counseling?
The LGBTQIA community continues to face unique challenges and bias/stigma in society. At The Kraft Group, we understand the importance and need for LGBTQIA counseling. Our LGBTQ therapists provide a safe space for those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning or intersex to explore who they are and how to promote their wellbeing. Our clinicians are compassionate, culturally competent, and available in-person or online to provide professional counseling services to support the LGBTQIA community.
What issues do the LGBTQ+ Community face?
Among multiple other sources, the National Alliance of Mental Health (NAMI), reports LGBTQIA community continues to face discrimination, prejudice, denial of civil and human rights, harassment, and family rejection.
