Online LGBTQ Counseling In India

Online LGBTQ Counselling

The world will embrace you as you are.

“ This world would be a whole lot better if we just made an effort to be less horrible to one another”

LGBTQ community or group includes lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer, they are symbolized by the colours of the rainbow. Sexual identity and gender are shaped by hereditary and culture. People belonging to this community celebrate, identify and display their sexual orientation in a way that is different from the larger population of the world. They come under the minority status,  in few countries displaying their sexual preferences considered as crime or religious sin, so they are afraid to open up their identity to the people around them and feel inferior in terms of finding a partner. 

Belonging to an LGBTQ community is not easy it’s too challenging from the beginning of their life when they start realising that they have a different kind of sexual orientation that is not socially acceptable and can be embarrassing. These people face psychological pain, anxiety, depression, loneliness and sense of inferiority and less acceptance towards themselves and the world around them so they need to visit counsellors or the therapist frequently or the time when they feel inferior.

Problems Faced By The LGBTQ Community People

Being a person labelled as LGBTQ community is an issue in itself, they also have the fundamental rights to live like normal people happily but in day to day living they face challenges that need to addressed at the global level, some of those issues are:

 

Personal issues 
Lack of self-acceptance, lack of sense of worth, the feeling of inferiority.

How Can Couples Counseling Help?

Relationship Skills

In every development and advanced developing countries, there is a special association of the LGBTQ counselling cell. Some specialized counsellors can help people belonging to this community and work with them to eliminate the crisis that the LGBTQ community faces.

All are welcomed in the counselling process and counsellors tend to make aware people of their own gender identity and sexual orientation as well as tell them how to manage and cope up with this situation.

They also try to aware the parents of people belonging to the LGBTQ community about the situation and how to respond.

They go for in-depth awareness like reality therapy and self-disclosure after that they bring insight within the client about their feelings, sexual pattern and how it can be possible to feel for the same sex or both the sex.

Later on, counsellors tell the person how they can fully unconditionally accept themselves without any regrets and worry of social stigmatization. The process of LGBTQ counselling remains the same but the context changes with the type of clients and their problems.

Benefits Of LGBTQ Counselling

Things To Expect In Counselling Session

  • Talking to a counsellor or a therapist is also fruitful when you are dealing with crisis or issues, they can make you aware of your situation and bring insights and knowledge on your ongoing problems so I will strongly request to visit a mental health professional whenever you feel uneasy or broken in your life.
  • In LGBTQ counselling sessions,  a person can get rid of many psychosocial problems like depression, social rejection, bullying, feeling of inferiority and many more.
  • Counsellors use group therapy in which every member of the group discusses his own experience, challenges and they also provide the suggestion for coping the daily issues they face.
  • Counsellors also use family therapy so that family members can easily accept the person and let them practice their sexual behaviour and display the love and feeling in a more appropriate and normal way.
  • Counsellors use a gender identity approach to bring awareness to the person so that the person can easily accept his conditions and maintain a state of wellness to reduce suicidal tendencies and prevent him from drug abuse and dependence.
  • Counsellors are also the stakeholders of lawmaking for the LGBTQ community and they raise their voice for them so that stigmas attached to the LGBTQ community can be reduced and they can live life more peacefully. Always remember love has only one colour and that’s its colour of love.
