Satori Health offers a variety of specialized support groups for our LGBTQ+ clients. Each group addresses specific needs within the community, providing a safe and affirming space for exploration, healing, and growth.
This group is designed for individuals who identify at various points along the gender spectrum (e.g., transgender, gender-queer, gender nonconforming). We offer a safe and therapeutic space where members can process their thoughts and feelings about relevant issues associated with gender. Some examples of discussion topics include exploration of "coming out" challenges, exploring inquiries related to the process of transitioning, examining experiences of transphobia, identifying strategies for maintaining safety, and developing an identity-affirming support system.
This group offers a unique opportunity to gain insight and awareness regarding aggressive behaviors and the tools to break the recurring pattern of Tension – Explosion – Honeymoon in abusive relationships through an LGBTQ+ lens.
This group focuses on HIV and the stigma attached. The group discusses an HIV+ individual's experience when first diagnosed with HIV, what the initial reaction was, and how it is managed. Many individuals diagnosed with HIV are not aware until many months or even years later. The group allows clients to process feelings about their current medical condition as well as all the medications available to them. Various topics covered include being HIV+, life as an HIV+ individual, medications available, exploring various support groups available to HIV+ individuals, and how to have intimate relationships with others who are not HIV+.
This group focuses on awareness of self and terms within the LGBTQ+ community. We use the acronym LGBT to describe the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community. The first three letters (LGB) refer to sexual orientation. The 'T' refers to issues of gender identity. Gender identity is your own, internal, personal sense of being a man or a woman (or as someone outside of that gender binary). Sexual orientation describes a person's enduring physical, romantic, and/or emotional attraction to another person (for example: straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual).

Research consistently shows that LGBTQ+ individuals experience higher rates of mental health concerns due to factors like minority stress, discrimination, and lack of social support. Our LGBTQ+ affirming program is designed for anyone who identifies as LGBTQ+ and is seeking mental health support in an environment that recognizes, validates, and addresses the unique aspects of their experience.
These groups not only foster a sense of safety and belonging but also enhance the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions. Moreover, the LGBTQ+ track serves as a vital beacon of support and affirmation, validating the diverse identities within the community and empowering individuals to navigate their mental health journeys with confidence and resilience. In prioritizing inclusivity and sensitivity, Satori Health sets a standard for mental health care that celebrates diversity and celebrates the richness of LGBTQ+ experiences through mental health recovery.
At Satori Behavioral Health's LGBTQ+ program, your treatment is tailored based on a range of factors, including your specific needs, identity considerations, and whether your challenges are coupled with other mental health conditions. When you come to Satori Health, our admissions staff members will assess your unique needs and determine the most effective and affirming treatment approach for you.
We provide a range of holistic and evidence-based therapies specifically designed to support LGBTQ+ individuals. For instance, affirmative cognitive-behavioral therapy is ideal for those who struggle with minority stress and identity-related challenges. During therapy, you'll identify negative thoughts and emotions that may stem from experiences of discrimination, stigma, or internalized negativity, and determine how they affect your behaviors. Once you've identified these adverse reactions, you can work on creating coping mechanisms and other strategies to implement healthy behaviors and develop a strong sense of identity and self-worth.
