In honor of Pride Month, we’re teaming up with The Nest Counseling Center to offer free letters of support (also known as readiness letters) for transgender individuals living in California seeking gender affirming medical services.
The Healthy Relationships Starter Kit is a free, comprehensive resource guide designed to help individuals build and maintain healthy connections across all areas of life, covering essential topics like communication, boundary-setting, emotional regulation, conflict resolution, and partnership dialogue. Rooted in principles of self-awareness, mutual respect, and personal growth, this accessible tool is especially valuable for LGBTQIA2S+ individuals and anyone seeking to develop intentional, fulfilling relationships regardless of their current circumstances or past experiences.
Grief & Gathering: Support for the Holidays is a compassionate GGOC Community Education course offering practical tools and emotional support for navigating the complex emotions of the holiday season—from managing family dynamics and setting boundaries to processing grief and finding balance with chosen family.
Follow Gather & Grow OC on Instagram as we share in-depth therapist profiles introducing our diverse team of LGBTQ+ affirming mental health professionals. Getting to know our backgrounds, specialties, and values can help you find the right therapeutic match and make starting therapy feel more personal and less intimidating.
Just Living My Best Life is a free self-guided workbook for LGBTQIA2S+ individuals navigating identity exploration, coming out, and self-advocacy at their own pace. Packed with reflective exercises and practical tools, it creates a safe space to explore your authentic self, set boundaries, and build confidence—honoring that there's no one "right" way to be you.
As we honor International Transgender Day of Visibility this April, we spotlight both the resilience of our trans community and the critical challenges they face, particularly regarding proposed legislation affecting trans youth in California. At Gather & Grow, we remain steadfast in our commitment to providing affirming care and support services while actively advocating against discriminatory policies that impact our transgender community members.
