LGBTQIA Health: Sexual identity is an important part of every person. People who do not conform to cis- and heteronormative, i.e. general, expectations still often suffer from discrimination and thus more stress<\/b> – and this can promotepsychological and psychosomatic illnesses<\/b>. Psychological symptoms are often developed to compensate for anxiety and suffering.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Growing up in a world where you learn as a child to have to follow the heterosexual image can often be very hard and cause dysfunctional cognitive thinking patterns, depression, anxiety problems, and trauma,<\/b>among other things.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

As a therapist who has also been assisting LGBT* people for over 10 years, I believe that ensuring a supportive and understanding therapeutic environment is extremely important. Of considerable importance here is understanding the impact of society’s stereotypes and heteronormative expectations<\/b> on people’s psychosocial development.<\/p>\n

I attach great importance to this. In this sense, after acquiring the additional title of sexual medicine<\/b><\/a>(Berlin Medical Association- \u00c4rztekammer Berlin), I have undergone additional training and qualification. my continuing education includes also mytraining<\/a> in LGBTQIA affirmative therapy (LGBTQIA Affirmative Therapy Certification Program, AdvancedMental Health<\/i><\/b>Training Institute in Florida, USA).<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
