At Therapy for Queer Asians, we work with queer + trans individuals from all walks of life. Many of the topics that are discussed in individual therapy for queer + trans people include but are not limited to:

• Gender Identity Exploration (what gender means to oneself and understanding how gender shows up in one’s life, and deconstructing the dominant narratives about gender and gender expression)

• Anxiety + Depression (LGBTQ+ Individuals are 1.5x - 2.5x more likely to develop symptoms of anxiety and depression than their straight, gender-conforming counterparts, but the mental health of those in the LGBTQ+ community often gets exacerbated by the lack of community and family support and the lack of access to affirming mental health care).

• Family of Origin Issues [FOO] (Homophobia & Transphobia from FOO, marriage + child-rearing expectation, and other cultural issues that may be experienced by qt people of color).

• Relationship Issues (Coming out as trans + queer while being in a hetero-presenting relationship, gender expectations + traditional gender roles, sexual intimacy, and differences in libido (sex drive))

• Attachment Issues

• Gender Dysphoria

• Self-image and self-worth issues

• Discrimination

• Coming Soon: Gender Affirming Care - Letter of Support
