Diversity: LGBT
The college years are a time when many students begin to sort out their values and figure out who they are. It is not unusual for students to question their sexual orientation or gender identity and to explore how to integrate these with the rest of their life. The Counseling Center at GVSU can help you if you are experiencing any of the following:
- You are confused about your sexual orientation or gender identity.
- You are exploring "coming out" to peers, professors, family or friends and feel like you could use some help figuring things out.
- You are a LGBT person of color and are experiencing multiple forms of oppression.
- You feel at odds with social gender messages.
- You identify as bisexual and feel like nobody gets it.
- You are experiencing tension and / or harassment due to someone's reaction to your sexual orientation or gender identity.
- You are trying to accept / understand another's sexual orientation and need to talk to someone open and nonjudgmental.
- You have LGBT parent(s) and are concerned about developing relationships with people who will be open and accepting of your family's diversity.
- You are completely comfortable with your orientation and expect a counselor who is equally comfortable.
