Skycloud Mental Health is a telepsychiatry practice that provides psychiatric and psychotherapy services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer adults. We believe in creating a safe space for you to express yourself, live your identity, and receive the personalized care and support that you deserve for any mental health issues you struggle with, whether they relate to your identity or not. Transgender and other gender-diverse individuals deserve to live their truth. Yet the process to become the person they were meant to be isn’t always easy. We do still live in a world dominated by cisgender norms, and one where trans people remain vulnerable to roadblocks set up by politicians and intolerance.

We have chosen to use telepsychiatry to provide support for our patients for many reasons, but one of the most important is directly related to the work we do with the LGBTQ+ community. We know that some of our patients have not yet come out to friends and family, while others live in communities that are not as accepting of people’s unique identities. We also know that our patients are more likely to continue their care when they can receive it in the comfort of their own home without requiring a commute. This allows us to treat patients in big cities like Seattle and Portland, to smaller towns peppered throughout our four licensed states (WA, OR, UT, MN, NM, and AZ).

Gender affirming care provides the psychological and psychiatric services that you need to take the steps necessary to present your real self to the world.
