Coming Out We Need To Talk with Dr. Darcy Sterling

For members of the LGBTQ community, coming out isn’t a one-off conversation. It’s more like a series of discussions in which the person discloses to their loved ones that they are not the expected default, and instead are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning — or some combination thereof.
The process of coming out is largely influenced by when a person comes out. Like, literally, the era they find themself living in, as well as by the culture they find themself living in. 
Gay rights has come a long way in the past 10-15 years, but for anyone contemplating coming out, trust me: It does not feel easy. 
Whether you’re a member of the LGBTQ community, an ally, or pondering where you land on the ever-broadening spectrum, I hope this episode makes your journey smoother. And if I can personally do anything to help you, don’t hesitate to email me: Darcy@AskDrDarcy.com
In this episode, you’ll learn:

Strategies I employ to support clients through the coming out process.The stages involved in coming out.How to respond to someone who is coming out to you.
AND… You’ll hear my own story of coming out — both of them.
Xxoo Darcy
