Why do you believe this provider should be listed in this database?
I have additional training in providing culturally competent LGBTQ+ Mental Health care. I am fortunate to work in an independent, feminist clinic providing collaborative care with a team of caring and understanding providers, medical assistants, and support staff.
What continuing education about treating LGBTQ+ patients does this provider participate in?
At Mabel Wadsworth Center, we receive regular trainings on a variety of issues, and we also engage in significant training and outreach to other local agencies, providers, schools, and the community around the specific health needs of LGBTQ+ clients. In November, 2019, the Clinical Director and I were able to attend the Advancing Excellence in Transgender Health conference in Boston, and bring much of what we learned back to the Center.
