ihi 's mission is to provide professional mental health services to all who need them. We welcome everyone without prejudice in regard to cultural, sexual or gender orientation. Our therapists are screened for their sensitivity to people of varied backgrounds and life experiences. Our diverse, well-trained staff is flexible in utilizing different approaches and able to tailor therapy to the specific needs of each client. Because Ihi is also a training institute, the therapists who work with us are skilled professionals engaged in a continuing growth process. ihi was founded in 1973 to fill an important need: providing affirmative professional mental health services to the LGBTQ community and to all persons stigmatized and labeled because their lifestyles may not conform to current social norms. After leading the successful struggle with the American Psychiatric Association to have homosexuality removed from the list of mental disorders, the founders of Ihi recognized the need for a therapy center that could address people's emotional problems while respecting and fostering their unique identity.
