Queer Affirmative Therapy

Homophobia is as much about impact as it is about intention. Harm can occur even if our behavior is not motivated by hate or malice.
Next time you encounter a friend, loved one, partner etc. who is saying things that are homophobic, you can ask them what they meant or pull them to the side and express your discomfort. We do not have the luxury of silence.

During this, Older Americans Month AND National Honor Our LGBT Elders Day, QAT honors the strength, wisdom, and resilience of our LGBT Elders! We younger generations of q***r, trans, nonbinary, pansexual, gender and/or sexually fluid, kinky, poly, monogamish, etc, wouldn’t be able to live so loudly and proudly if it were not for your many sacrifices, teachings, and ways in which you pushed the envelope for our survival. THANK YOU

What is a q***r family?
What does q***ring family mean?
We are not just talking about same-sex parented families, but all families inclusive of diverse sexualities and genders.
Whether in extended biological families with a small or a large dash of q***rness, in blended and other unconventional family formations, including chosen relationships of intimacy and affinity, our ways of doing family life are q***rer than ever.
Happy International Day of Families, enjoy some of my little one’s favorite books. How will you be celebrating today?
