Specialties: LGBTQIA+

Point Allerton Therapy provides individual and relationship therapy for queer and trans adults.

 

LGBTQIA+ people are at a higher risk for dealing with shame, fear, discrimination, and adverse and traumatic events. In 2025, this is more serious.

 

There are health disparities linked to societal stigma, discrimination, and denial of  civil and human rights. Acceptance of sexual orientation and gender identity affects the mental health and safety of queer people and all humanity. Queer folk experience emotional distress, stigmatization, victimization, discrimination and barriers to accessing healthcare.​ 

 

The challenges of queer people, although they are real and serious, cannot be allowed to overshadow joy. Let's work on the challenges you face, and make sure to center queer joy. Queer joy is resistance!

 

There is also a community group (not a therapy group) that I facilitate through Melanie Hood-Wilson and Associates. More information here.
