You're Allowed to Fire Your Therapist

We take a bite of queer-affirming therapy with Colton Schoenike (they/them,), M.S., MFT-IT, a training marriage and family therapist based in Menominee, Wisconsin.

We talk about protips for queer and trans folks seeking affirming therapists, the continued gatekeeping of trans folks seeking biomedical transitions, and what to do when you just don't vibe with your therapist and how amazing it is when you do.

More resources related to queer affirming therapy are available on our website.

If you or someone you know needs help through a crisis or navigating their questions about being trans, contact the Trans Lifeline Hotline at US (877) 565-88760 or CA (877) 330-6366
