Do you want Queer care by queer folx? The LGBTQIA+ (we embrace "Queer") community has the right to seek mental health medication just as we are. Perhaps you or your child are seeking medication management for anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, or mood disorders. Maybe you're trans/non-binary/gender-nonconforming or gay/lesbian and are tired of explaining our lifestyle to prescribers. Perhaps you're anxious or depressed about app dating or a recent kink or OnlyFans effort. Maybe you're not out (or fully out) and need medication to help the anxiety. Then, you deserve affirming and competent care.
Sometimes, you need medication to help. Wouldn't it be nice to have a clinically qualified prescriber who is part of your LGBTQIA+ community? Plus, we publically do all our business under "NothingBettetter Health" because your privacy is important to us. You can be proud of yourself and get safe care, too.
Queer Ear Mental Health (a NothingBetter Health PLC company) is staffed with folx (folks) with lived experience as part of the LGBTQIA+ (queer) community. All of our providers are ANCC Board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioners, and our staff lives a queer life. Queer care by queer folx!
