So You Had a Gayby: GLBTQ Men and the Parenting Experience
“Gayby Boom”—19% of gay male couples in WA are currently raising children under the age of 18
Connecting with similar families can positive impact both parents AND their children
It is for these reasons that I am inviting Gay, Bisexual, Trans, and Queer male/male identified parents to join a unique therapy group:
About The Facilitator: “I grew up in two homes—one headed by a liberal gay male couple—the other by conservative Christians. Talk about variety! As a Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice, my life experience forms the basis for my passion for working with the LGTBQ community. Growing up, I loved meeting other kids who had two dads like me, and I want to give parents the opportunity to meet and connect with other families like theirs”
