LGBT Family Planning
There is a whole world of options out there for LGBT family planning; adoption, donor insemination, surrogacy. Where should you begin? It is good to look inward before beginning your search. You and your partner working is together is important to envision what you want as you build your family. We can bush up basic communication tools. Also, we can learn how to resolve conflict without doing harm. We will talk about parenting rolls. All the time, we will be reflecting on how your family planning process will work for you. There is much to reflect on before you start looking for surrogate mothers, donors, or children to adopt.
Starting a family is a different world for LGBT couples and it is helpful to have a therapist that can help the self reflective process of family planning. You will have difficult decisions to make. It will be a long and overwhelming process. But we can work together to make sure that you have a positive experience in all of this family planning.

To provide a safe environment to explore their feelings about the process as it progresses is very helpful. As well as talking about parenting styles, how we were brought up, and what we expect about raising children.
