Another Therapist (for Consanguineous couples)

YES! Happy to hear of another therapist that is worth recommending to those who are in consang relationships, like the kind discussed on this blog.

I’m copying and pasting from this page: http://marriage-equality.blogspot.com/2018/09/a-note-from-therapist.html#comment-form

Details:

I am a psychotherapist who specializes in working with clients who struggle with “taboo” sexualized thoughts and behaviors. I’m currently working on research dealing with consensual familial intimate relationships. I offer online therapy as well as in-person and I accept most major insurance. I’m licensed in Georgia and Maryland.

Before talking to anyone, you should make sure you know their rules and what to expect.

Counseling or Therapy Options

I was searching Google one day and found this website that offers a counseling service that is free. There are volunteers on there who play the role of ‘Listeners’. Some of these people are in training to become psychologists or therapists. I saw there’s also a section for LGBT-specific issues. It would be great for someone who doesn’t want to talk over the phone or meet a therapist in person or if you can’t afford to pay for therapy.

It’s called 7cups and this is the site: www.7cups.com

You just make a free account and go from there. The person you talk to might not be able to talk to you forever, but as long as they are on there, you can contact them on different days. If you find someone you click with, it could help offer a distraction in tough times.

I would recommend it to LGBT people. Paid therapists are also available through the site, but the ‘Listeners’ option is free.

This second service is another option for anyone needing therapy, but it’s also good for those who want to talk about Consanguinamory with a non-judgmental professional therapist. I describe it more Here.

This therapist can also be reached at THeart@AllHeartsUnited.org

Just sharing this info for anyone who might need it because mental health is important.

Mental Health Counceling

Hey,

I wanted to share this with anyone who might want to know this information.

If you are part of a minority then you’d know how challenging life can be sometimes. And when it comes to looking for therapy, maybe you feel scared to discuss what is in your heart.

Well, this therapist posted in a consanguinamory group on facebook:

http://www.allheartsunited.org

You can e-mail them at:

THeart@AllHeartsUnited.org

I messaged her a bit and sent her a link to my blog and she said it would be ok for me to post a link to her site here. So if you are looking for a professional therapist who will be non-judgmental and with whom you can be open about your attractions and relationships, you can check out her page (sliding scale is also an option for pricing)

She offers Skype sessions as well. Currently they can only accept clients in the U.S. If you can’t afford her prices, maybe she can refer you to other therapists who would be willing to offer the same kind of services.

I hope someone finds this helpful.
