Rapport: The Blueprint
How to Signal Safety and Attunement with LGBTQIA+ Clients
Queer & trans clients are experts at reading between the lines.
It’s a survival skill.
And in this climate? It’s still adaptive….
Whether you call it a trauma response or a survival strategy, it’s there—and it’s gonna play a role.
So….making sure you’re signaling safety and attunement is critical, but it can be hard to know whether you’re signaling allyship, or just virtue signaling.
Still, every time you try to take a step forward…
The path twists.
You’re caught between not knowing enough and feeling like you should already have it all figured out.
So you linger at the edges, quietly hoping that someday, somehow, you’ll find your way in.
And shallow performativity isn’t your style.
You know that caring for marginalized communities isn’t about showing up and claiming expertise that doesn’t exist.
If you do this, you’re gonna show up fully, and have the receipts to back it up. You aren’t willing to risk causing someone harm.
You’re not alone.
And your intuition is dead-on.
Trans-affirming care is both more simple than it’s made out to be, AND more complex than you think.

TL;DR: A one-hour webinar can’t prepare you for this work.
Good luck untangling the gender binary in an hour…I haven’t cracked that code yet myself.
But—
Complexity doesn’t have to feel intimidating.
Complexity is invigorating—(it’s your f***ing jam, actually).
You just need someone to guide you through the labyrinth, threading the path thoughtfully so that:
You don’t memorize this stuff—you embody it.
You need a blueprint.
Rapport: The Blueprint isn’t another dull webinar, a checklist, or a crash course. It’s a comprehensive guide to building the kinds of authentic, attuned relationships with trans & gender diverse clients that you’ve been struggling to build so far. All in service of you developing a deep and embodied understanding so that trans affirming care isn’t just what you do.
It’s who you are.
If you want to be the provider…
who just gets it
who queer folks rave about
…and send all their queer fam to see….
This is for you.
