Around the country, June has become a symbol of Pride — a time of the year when everyone can feel confident in who they are and who they love. While the Pride celebrations of today thrive on bringing local LGBTQIA+ communities together, at Bournewood Health Systems, we remember that the first Pride event was a protest.
Even as LGBTQ+ rights have expanded across the globe, there is still a long way to go. As your safe space for LGBTQ+ therapy in Brookline, we are here to support you in being who you are, whatever that means to you.
According to The Trevor Project’s 2024 national survey, as many as half of LGBTQ+ people are not able to get the mental healthcare they need. As new laws and guidelines continue to restrict LGBTQ+ affirming care, it is likely that this statistic will continue to rise. Plus, people who are part of the community already report higher levels of mental illness than their cisgender and heterosexual counterparts, meaning there is a serious divide between traditional healthcare and what the community needs.
Many LGBTQ+ individuals come to us looking for an accepting therapist in Boston. We are honored to be able to provide resources for inclusive and supportive mental healthcare near you, starting with our own dedicated program.
At Bournewood, we will continue to loudly and proudly support the LGBTQ+ community through programs like Kaleidoscope. This partial hospitalization program (PHP) was designed specifically for LGBTQ+ and gender expansive adults, ensuring you have a safe space to pursue culturally competent mental health services in Boston.
The team at Kaleidoscope is committed to affirming you in every way and making our center as inclusive as possible. Here, you can attend structured therapy and LGBTQ+ support groups in Boston, Monday through Friday, and find assistance in helping you navigate mental health concerns, addiction recovery, and more.
When mental illness and substance abuse disproportionately affect LGBTQ+ people and other minority groups, a lack of dedicated care services is a statement of its own. Rest assured that Bournewood Health Systems will continue to fight for your right to safe, informed, and inclusive mental healthcare for adults with mental health disorders, trauma, and other related concerns.
