Not only am I your counselor, I am your ALLY. I am here to support, respect, and listen to you. My goal is to do my best to understand all my students and help students express themselves in the way that they feel comfortable. I want to help educate others on the LGBTQ+ community through providing pertinent, current resources and developing healthy positive relationships.
Please let me know how I can better support the HAIS LGBTQ+ community.
Asking and correctly using someone's pronouns is one of the most basic ways to show your respect for their gender identity. When someone is referred to with the wrong pronoun, it can make them feel disrespected, invalidated, dismissed, alienated, or dysphoric ( often all of the above).
"The Montrose Center empowers our community—primarily lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) individuals and their families—to live healthier, more fulfilling lives."
Legacy’s medical and behavioral specialists, staff, and consultants recognize that LGBTQ+ patients often have unique needs that require equally unique responses. Given our roots, we have the range of experience and expertise to bring health, hope, and peace of mind to our LGBTQ+ patients, regardless of what issues they may be facing.
