View Barbara Thomas's profile

What is your go-to approach for LGBTQ+ counseling?

My go-to approach for LGBTQ+ counseling is collaborative therapy and trauma focused therapy. I prefer this because building the therapeutic relationship is essential and allows to build trust in the therapy room. Additionally, it allows clients to focus on their goals and to enhance their sense of themselves through empowerment. I utilize trauma-focused counseling as well, due to the trauma impact many individuals in the LGBTQ+ community experience and the context of being in a minority group. My personal experience as a member of the LGBTQ+ community allows some insight into the resilience of our community.

What tools do you teach in LGBTQ+ counseling?

I teach the following tools in LGBTQ+ counseling:

  • breathing techniques (square breathing, breath work)
  • mindfulness/present focus
  • grounding techniques (five senses, physical sensations, fidget/focus object, muscle relaxation)
  • journaling (freeform, bullet, prompts, daily success/struggle)
  • socratic questioning (cognitive challenging and rationalization of thoughts)
  • reframing (perspective shift and broadening mindset)
  • self-care skills (awareness of importance of basic needs)

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in LGBTQ+ counseling?

I know a client is making meaningful progress in LGBTQ+ counseling when there is trust in the therapeutic relationship and the goals set up initially are beginning to be achieved. I always like to preface that progress is not linear and will be an ongoing tool during treatment to challenge negative perceptions of self.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement LGBTQ+ counseling?

Clients can supplement their time in LGBTQ+ counseling by seeking out resources in their local LGBTQ+ community, joining queer spaces that are affirming and supportive, research history of the LGBTQ+ movement and daily journaling to reflect.

What should someone do to prepare for starting LGBTQ+ counseling?

To prepare for their first LGBTQ+ counseling session, an individual can notice their struggles, goals, and timeline of symptoms. An individual can also remember that they can ask the therapist questions about their therapeutic style and explore/advocate for their needs in a clinician. Additionally, they can create a safe space in their home that helps build routine and privacy for online therapy.

Starting LGBTQIA+ counseling in Philadelphia

What is LGBTQ+ counseling?

LGBTQIA+ counseling is a type of queer affirmative counseling dedicated to assisting individuals and couples in navigating the intricate intersections of their sexual orientation, gender identity, and mental health, with a primary goal of fostering well-being, self-acceptance, and affirming a client’s life experiences as a queer individual. Although not all LGBTQ+ individuals seek specialized counseling, a substantial number discover vital support and empathy within these inclusive and affirming therapeutic settings.

How does LGBTQ+ counseling work?

Thriveworks LGBTQ+ counseling in Philadelphia, PA typically begins with an initial assessment to understand your specific needs. LGBTQ+ counselors aim to create a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment for anyone within the LGBTQ+ community by encouraging self-acceptance and offering an understanding of your identity and experiences. LGBTQ+ therapy addresses issues like coming out, discrimination, mental health challenges, and gender transition, and provides support for LGBTQ+ relationships.

Why is LGBTQ+ counseling important?

LGBTQ+ counseling is incredibly important because it can help queer individuals accept their identity, learn self-love, and give them important tools for facing the challenges of being a queer person in today’s society, among many other benefits. LGBTQ+-affirming therapists can understand the unique perspective and experiences of queer individuals as they help them process past trauma, address family conflicts, treat issues with anxiety, and more.

Is LGBTQ+ counseling conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks LGBTQ+ counseling in Philadelphia, PA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does LGBTQ+ counseling last?

The number of sessions for LGBTQ+ counseling depends on the specific needs and goals of the individual. It could encompass a relatively limited series of sessions or extend into a longer counseling plan. The precise quantity and duration of sessions typically emerge through collaborative discussion with the counselor, taking into account the client’s progress and their therapeutic objectives.

LGBTQ Competent Therapy in Philadelphia, PA—Counselors

A bedrock of emotional healthy is freedom to be oneself. That means acknowledging likes and dislikes. That means being honest about strengths and weaknesses. It also means being true to one’s gender and sexuality. People who identify at LGBTQ face particular challenges as they seek emotional health and freedom. That is one of the many reasons Thriveworks Philadelphia offers LGBTQ competent therapy. We know that our LGBTQ clients face unique challenges, and we are ready to help them as they fight against repression and fight for freedom. If this resonates with you and you think you could benefit from counseling, reach out to Thriveworks Philadelphia today to schedule your first appointment.

LGBTQ Sensitive Counseling

Many untrue and unfair stigmas still plague many in the LGBTQ community, and these stigmas exact a psychological and emotional price. What is the real-world impact of that toll? Consider these grievous realities:

  • The cis-gendered and straight population has a substance abuse rate of 9 percent, but the LGBTQ population’s substance abuse rate is 30 percent.
  • LGBTQ youth, ages 10-24 face more fear, prejudice, hatred, and bulling in their homes and in their schools than their cis-gendered and straight peers.
  • LGBTQ people are diagnosed with mental illness at twice the rate of others.
  • Many LGBTQ people report experience a heightened anxiety called “minority stress.” This often results from facing family rejection, social exclusion, the denial of human rights, harassment, prejudice, and abuse.
  • A lead cause of death for LGBTQ youth is suicide.

As sobering as these realities are, they only tell half the story. The LGBTQ also faces a dual-stigma: those who often need mental health care the most may have the hardest time finding a competent therapist. The American Psychological Association officially defined homosexuality as a pathology up until 1973. Even though the definition has changed, many therapists are not informed or accepting of the care LGBTQ clients need.

Finding an LGBTQ+ Competent Therapist

What does it look like for mental health professionals to offer LGBTQ competent care? How can individuals ensure their therapist will respect their gender and sexual orientation? Here are a few tips for choosing a therapist.

  • When calling to schedule an appointment, ask about the counselor’s experience with LGBTQ clients. It is okay to request past examples.
  • Listen to your intuition. If you feel comfortable, schedule an appointment. If at any point, you do not feel comfortable, move onto another therapist.
  • During your appointment, let your counselor know that LGBTQ sensitive therapy is important to you.
  • During treatment, disclosure whatever you feel safe disclosing about your sexual orientation and gender.
  • During treatment, disclose whatever you feel safe disclosing about past traumas and current mental health struggles you are experiencing.
  • There is no right or wrong topic for therapy. Many people choose to discuss topics like…
    • Gender and sexual identity
    • Safety concerns
    • Healthy communication
    • Dealing with discrimination and non-acceptance
    • How and when to come out
    • Dating and other relationships
    • Family concerns
    • Transcending gender roles
    • Addiction
    • Eating disorders
    • Depression
    • Anxiety and stress
    • Self-esteem issues
    • Past trauma and abuse

The therapist listened really well and was very kind. . I didn't really receive any suggestions to improve what is going on or to help me with what I'm dealing with (anxiety/panic attacks). I'm not sure if this was because it was an introductory meeting today.
