affirmative therapy IN NYC.
We see you. Who you are. Who you love. Who you lust. We affirm your authenticity. We support you living your most fulfilling life. We provide a safe, private, nonjudgmental space to explore, share, and heal. That’s our baseline as affirmative therapists.
Our licensed psychologists specialize in gender and sexual diversity. We are members of the LGBTQ+ communities and/or allies.
If you’re coming to therapy to talk about dating, sex, or your identity, we’ll meet you there. If you identify as a gender or sexuality minority, but not coming in to talk about either of those things, we won’t be talking about them either.
Relationship Counseling for LGBTQ+ Partnerships
Our therapists have experience providing relationship therapy to couples and partnerships all along the sexuality, gender, and commitment spectrums. As relationship therapists, we view our role as a facilitator and guide in helping you and your partner(s) live your most healthy and satisfying relationship - this exists outside of any preconceived norms.
Therapy can help you try out different labels and ways of understanding yourself with the goal of finding what reflects you fully and fits you accurately.
Or it can help you reject labels and boxes altogether and develop greater comfort living authentically in the in-between, fluid, or non-binary space.
Our therapists also have experience working with issues unique to LGBTQ+ folks such as:
Preparing to open your relationship
healing/working through issues of trust and/or jealousy in your open relationship
gender roles within your relationship
fertility and parenting
gender transition of one partner
challenges with external family relationships
