LGBTQ+
Empowering Your Authentic Self
In LGBTQ+ counseling at RFC Counseling, our primary goal is to provide a safe and affirming environment where clients can explore their sexual orientation and gender identity with confidence and respect. We begin with an initial consultation to discuss your needs and goals, followed by intake forms to gather important background information. Your first session will involve a detailed discussion to develop a customized treatment plan addressing your unique challenges and goals.
Understanding LGBTQ+ Challenges
We offer support for various aspects of LGBTQ+ experiences, including identity exploration, coming out, dealing with discrimination, gender dysphoria, and transitioning.
