As a gay or questioning man seeking counseling, you are probably looking for a counselor who is also gay.
If your concerns relate to sexual identity, your counselor's specialized knowledge of gay psychosocial issues will be a big advantage.
Even when your problems are not directly related to being gay, you will almost certainly find it more comfortable to work with another gay man who has shared similar developmental milestones.
Working with your gay therapist eliminates the task of educating him on gay experience. As a gay man, your counselor is already intimately familiar with gay life. Since he lives it, he saves you the trouble of having to explain it.
But naturally
we don't discriminate. So we welcome
clients of all backgrounds and sexual identities. In the end,
clients are seeking a counselor
who helps them reach their goals. That's
our bottom line too.
