Westport Therapists specializing in LGBTQ Issues

Name: TherapyDen LLC
Price range: $

Just like any other group, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) community faces mental health issues and unique challenges. However, LGBTQ individuals are almost 3 times more likely than others to experience a mental health condition, such as depression or anxiety. Additionally, more than half of individuals who identify as transgender experience depression or anxiety. The LGBTQ community is also at a higher risk for suicide. Young people are even more at risk, as they may experience a lack of support at home and fear, hatred or prejudice in school. If you are a member of the LGBTQ community and are facing mental health challenges, you don’t have to suffer in silence. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s LGBTQ experts and get help today.

You are struggling with anxious thoughts, low mood, irritability, the invisible load that is placed upon you.

Maybe you’re also a mom and feel like you’re drowning or missing out on the happy moments you feel that you are supposed to have with your kids because of your mental health. I get it. It’s a really difficult struggle and you are not alone.

Clients most often seek my support to heal from trauma and the wide range of emotional reactions (anxiety, depression, anger, attention difficulties) that result. People reach out because they or their child are feeling emotionally overwhelmed. I'm here to help you feel more capable in being present with your feelings. Trauma can affect the stories we tell ourselves about our self-worth, what to expect from our relationships, and our worldview. Together, we can write different narratives.

Despite being hard working & compassionate, life is difficult because of past experiences. Maybe you have survived a grave loss, domestic violence, sexual trauma, an invalidating environment or a dysfunctional relationship and are struggling with coping with these experiences. When my clients first come in, they feel overwhelmed by what they have lived through. They experience intense reminders that get in the way of truly connecting with others.
