| Sometimes all we need is a listening ear, a helping hand and a caring heart to find balance in our lives. |

| My Pledge to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Clients I welcome lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals and families into my practice and offer all mental health services to clients on an equal basis, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, and other non-relevant factors. I believe that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender identities are within the spectrum of normal human experience and are not in themselves pathological, "unnatural," or sinful. I therefore do not promote or support attempts to change clients' sexual orientation or gender identity. I respect the mental healthcare decision-making rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender patients/clients, their unmarried partners, their non-biological children, and any others they may define as family for the purposes of mental healthcare decision-making. I commit to taking steps to make my practice fully inclusive of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons as reflected in written forms, policies and procedures, appropriate training for all clinical and administrative staff, and standardized assessments. I commit to taking steps to learn about the unique mental health concerns of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals and families so that I can provide the highest quality care to them.
