When you get in touch with a potential therapist, either before or during the first session, asking the right questions can help you gain a better understanding of their background and approach to LGBTQ+ care.

Most therapists will welcome these questions because they want to make sure they’re the right person to support you. ⤵️ 
- What is your background and training in providing LGBTQ+-affirming care? 
- What percent of your caseload identifies as LGBTQ+?
- What do you find to be the biggest challenge in the LGBTQ+ community right now? (This question really gauges the therapist’s understanding of the LGBTQ+ community’s needs and systemic issues.)
- What do you enjoy most about working with the queer community as a therapist? (This question demonstrates a therapist’s capacity to honor and celebrate queer joy.)
