Therapists who work with LGBTQ youth are more in need than ever, with several state legislatures (including Utah's) putting limits on gender-affirming care. Here are some of the therapists and organizations helping LGBTQ youth.
Lisa Hansen, clinical director at Flourish Therapy, said the nonprofit organization offers “counseling sessions for LGBTQIA+ individuals, couples, families and other relationships.”
“About 50% of our clients pay $25 or less for therapy, and 75% of our clients pay $50 or less for therapy,” Hansen said via email. “We also take most major insurances. We provide at least 250 free sessions of therapy every month for clients who cannot afford it and do not have insurance.” These days, Hansen said, the youth they most often work with are genderqueer, “young people exploring what gender means to them and how they experience and express it.”
Meyer is working toward a master’s in social work, and works at Flourish as a non-licensed therapist and clinical intern. She also has run the transgender, nonbinary group at the Utah Pride Center for the past two years.
