Becoming & Belonging:
Queer Perinatal Support
Support for Queer Parents and Parents-to-Be
Becoming a parent, in any form , changes everything. For queer families, this journey is deeply intentional and often misunderstood, carrying layers of complexity: decisions about bodies and DNA, navigating systems that don’t see or support you, and tending to relationships with your partner, chosen family, and family of origin, all while balancing the joy and exhaustion of creating family on your own terms.
Whether you’re exploring fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, or reimagining family in your own way, therapy can be a space to process it all.
What You Might Be Holding
Feeling excitement and joy alongside fear, grief, or ambivalence about parenthood
Grappling with decisions about bodies, gestation, and genetics
Carrying stress or frustration from navigating healthcare and legal systems that weren’t built with you in mind
Facing financial challenges related to fertility, pregnancy, and starting a family
Wondering how your relationships will shift with your partner, chosen family, or family of origin
Feeling unseen, misunderstood, or isolated as a queer parent or parent-to-be
How Therapy Can Help
Therapy can be a refuge in the midst of a complex and demanding journey. As a new parent who has recently navigated these experiences myself, I provide a space to explore your emotions, relationships, and decisions without judgment. Here, you can find grounding in yourself, clarity in your choices, and connection to the family you’re creating.
