Can I Be My Full Self in Therapy?
If you’ve ever asked:
“Will I have to explain or defend who I am?”
“Will my therapist really get my experience?”
We hear you. And we believe therapy should never ask you to shrink.
At Holistic Psychotherapy NYC, we honor your lived experience, without pathologizing your identity or relationships. We support:
Exploration and integration of gender and sexual identity
Processing of past or ongoing invalidation, rejection, or microaggressions
Relationship dynamics across queer, trans, nonbinary, and polyamorous communities
You don’t need to justify who you are. Therapy should meet you exactly where you are—with presence and care.
How Do I Heal From the Impact of Discrimination or Shame?
For many LGBTQAI+ individuals, trauma doesn’t come from a single event, it’s cumulative. You may be holding:
Experiences of bullying or harassment
Family estrangement or religious trauma
Chronic hypervigilance in everyday environments
You might be wondering:
“Why do I still feel anxious or disconnected, even now?”
“How do I trust others—or myself—again?”
Therapy provides a space to unpack these layers gently and at your pace. Through a relational and somatic lens, we help you:
Reconnect with your body and sense of agency
Build self-compassion and emotional resilience
Reclaim safety, pleasure, and joy in your life
Can Therapy Support My Relationships and Community Belonging?
Yes, therapy can also be a space to nurture your relationships and chosen family. Our therapists support clients in:
Navigating open or poly relationships
Exploring queerness within cis/het relationships
Healing attachment patterns or intergenerational trauma
Creating deeper, more honest connections with others
We understand that LGBTQAI+ clients often carry nuanced relational dynamics—and we’re here to support you in navigating them with integrity, compassion, and self-trust.
