COUNSELING GROUPS

LGBTQ+ counseling groups offers members an opportunity to explore, identity, and express feelings about empowering and disempowering experiences related to their shared, and unique, identities. One of the biggest benefits is the potential to reduce feelings of isolation in a safe, affirming space. Additional benefits include an improvement in mental health, reduction of distress, and increased coping skills to tackle problems faced by LGBTQ+ individuals.

Transcend together!
For transgender and gender nonconforming adults to build resiliency skills, foster community, and explore their identity

Trans*cendence

The Trans*cendence group provides a warm, affirming space for anyone who identifies as transgender or within the transgender and gender non-conforming umbrella. In the group we will celebrate and embrace the unique experiences of each individual, work to build skills for coping with transphobia, explore different aspects of identity, discuss and build resiliency, and address many other topics as they arise that are relevant to the community. Group members will be given opportunities to share challenges they may be facing and seek support from other group members as well.
