Dear Therapist,
Working with adolescents means undoubtedly working with their family. So what happens when you add in the complexities and nuances of identity, gender, and sexuality exploration? Jump into this week's conversation with us we try to answer this question.
Carsin Perrelli, LPC has found herself working with today's LGBTQIA+ youth and shares her thoughts and experiences with us. She raises important points about how to work with parents and families who might be struggling to journey alongside their child in their healing and exploration of self.
So, grab a warm beverage, a cozy blanket, and settle into this week's discussion.
Also please note: This week's episode references sensitive content that some listeners might find difficult with mentions of suicide and mistreatment of LGBTQIA+ folks.
Sincerely,
2 Imperfect Therapists
