Sexual Identity Issues
The phrase “sexual identity issues” is a broad term that can apply to anybody who feels confused about or conflicted by their sexual desires and/or practices. These feelings can be intense and are sometimes exacerbated by societal stigmas or pressure from peers and loved ones. If not resolved, they can lead to feelings of self-loathing, hopelessness and isolation, as well as the development of anxiety and/or depression, sometimes to an intense degree. These feelings can be particularly acute when coupled with a co-occurring mental health disorder, diagnosed or not.
Our treatment for sexual identity issues in San Diego can help ease these damaging thoughts. At Solara Mental Health, we understand how vital it is for individuals to find congruence in and peace with their sexual identity. As such, our psychiatric facility’s program is specifically designed to help clients struggling with sexual identity issues. This begins with the environment in our mental health facilities, which is open, welcoming and stigma-free. This environment is fostered by our understanding clients and compassionate clinicians.
Here, clients can feel comfortable, safe and supportive as they seek healing through a variety of therapeutic modalities. These include individual therapy sessions led by a clinician with specific expertise in gender and sexuality issues, group therapy with understanding peers and holistic therapies. As needed, clients can also receive specific treatment for co-occurring mental health disorders. Through this process, clients come to a deeper understanding of themselves, helping them find lasting healing and peace.
