What should I know before beginning an online LGBTQ therapy session?
LGBTQ counseling is for adults as well as for adolescents (ages 10-17 who have the consent of a parent or guardian). You may benefit from LGBTQ counseling if you identify as LGBTQ, are exploring your gender identity or sexual orientation, or want to be an ally of someone who is. During LGBTQ counseling with Amwell, you’ll have a secure, confidential face-to-face session with a licensed therapist who is experienced with issues facing people of diverse genders and sexualities. To ensure your privacy, your Amwell therapy session will not be recorded or stored.
