Therapy Program for LGBTQ Southeast Asians

CERI is proud to be expanding services to LGBTQ+ refugees and immigrants of color, with a focus on the Southeast Asian community. The lack of recognition for the very lives, experiences, and needs of this community subset has alarming implications that have been ignored for too long.

CERI is now offering counseling and social services—at no cost—to the LGBTQ+ Southeast Asian (SEA) community.* This space honors the complexities of our community’s needs, identities, and experiences, with focus on personal and intergenerational trauma, historical and daily oppression, the implications of anything that keeps any of us from being who we truly deserve to be and become in this world.

This program offers support for: grief, money stress, being "out," immigration anxiety, gender dysphoria, conscious uncoupling, open/polyamory dynamics, passive aggression, kink, interracial conflicts, discrimination, and more.

* SEA countries include Cambodia, Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Burma, East Timor, Singapore, Brunei and Malaysia.
