HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!

June is a time to honor the LGBTQIA+ community, celebrate diversity, and recognize the ongoing fight for equality and inclusion.

As we reflect on this important month, we remember the Stonewall Uprising of 1969—a pivotal moment in LGBTQIA+ history. It was led in part by courageous activists like Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, two transgender women of color who played vital roles in sparking the modern LGBTQIA+ rights movement. Their advocacy reminds us that Pride began as a protest, and their legacy continues to inspire the work toward equity and justice.

As inclusive allies and mental health clinicians, here are a few ways we can honor this legacy:

Educate yourself and others about LGBTQIA+ identities and history.

Affirm your clients’ identities in your language, forms, and intake processes.

Create safe, trauma-informed spaces by respecting pronouns, names, and lived experiences.

Check your biases and engage in ongoing self-reflection.

Advocate within your practice and community for LGBTQIA+ rights and representation.

Let’s celebrate Pride by committing to inclusion—not just in June, but every day. Remembering the intersections of our clients matter every single day!
