MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES

Here at the Transgender Health & Wellness Center, we prioritize mental health just as much as physical health. Our mental health program is completely free, no insurance needed. We offer one-on-one therapy sessions with student LMFTs, who work under our in-office LMFT/LPCC, Dr. Juan Moriel. The sessions are private and confidential. The service includes assistance with medically necessary letters, LGBTQ family support, life coaching, life management, peer to peer social support, and Trans navigation for social services. We are here to help asylum seekers as well as those who are dealing with substance abuse, domestic violence, sexual assault, anxiety/depression, and the challenges of first coming out.

If this program interests you, don’t hesitate to contact us at info@trans.health or (760) 202-4308 Monday-Friday 11am-5pm. We are ready to help you on your journey.

If you are a masters-level MSW, MFT, or PCC student therapist, we are accepting practicum internship applications. As an intern, you will be conducting therapy with an array of individuals under our LMFT/LPCC, Dr. Juan Moriel. To learn more, reach out to us at info@trans.health with your resume.

For patients receiving medical care at the TH&WC, we have a fellowship of mental health providers—supervised by Dr. Juan Moriel. We provide counseling to support both your emotional and physical well-being. The Center is committed to providing these services in an affirming way: sex-positive, culturally sensitive, and without judgement. We are here to help you navigate complex issues as you work towards authentic living.

Patients from other primary care physicians and providers also have free access to our free mental health clinic, where they can receive quality mental healthcare that is gender-affirming. A referral begins with an email to info@trans.health or phone-call to (760) 202 4308.

TGI youth and young adults struggle with their families’ understanding and ability to support their transition. It is important to educate family members about what it means to transition. Often, when a person comes out as Trans, family members are also going through the coming-out process with them. The idea is to develop a loving and affirming family, as family support is crucial to later success in society. Our mental health providers help both the parents / guardians and their children to understand one another. This furnishes everyone involved with the building blocks for youth and young

adults to reach their potential.
