What is LGBTQ Affirming Therapy?
Mental health care is most effective when it recognizes the full context of who you are. For many LGBTQ+ individuals, emotional distress stems not only from internal struggles, but from navigating a world where identity can be misunderstood, dismissed, or even targeted.

At Integrative Psych, we provide LGBTQ-affirming therapy that centers your lived experience. Our comprehensive psychiatric treatment include individual therapy, LGBTQ group therapy, and medication support when appropriate. Whether you’re processing identity questions, seeking help for a specific condition, or looking for a therapist who truly gets it, our NYC-based team is here with affirming, inclusive care every step of the way.

Questions about LGBTQ+ Therapy?
We got you.

Do I have to talk about my identity in therapy?
Only if you want to. But working with an LGBTQ-affirming therapist means your identity will be respected and understood, not questioned or pathologized.
What if my past experiences aren’t “traumatic enough”?
You don’t need a specific label to seek support. Many LGBTQ+ individuals carry complex stress from years of subtle discrimination, family tension, or simply feeling “othered.”
Can therapy really help with things like shame or identity confusion?
Yes. Affirming therapy helps you unpack internalized beliefs, navigate identity safely, and move toward a fuller, more authentic life.
Is it hard to find a therapist who actually understands?
It can be. That’s why our team includes LGBTQ+ therapists and psychiatrists in New York trained to offer inclusive, evidence-based care—whether you’re exploring gender, healing from rejection, or just need a safe space to talk.
