5 STARTING POINTS TO FOLLOW FOR LGBTQIA+ AFFIRMING PRACTICE*
1. Ask for pronouns and preferred names on intake forms or when first meeting
2. Do not assume gender, sexuality or relationship structures, instead ask
3. Use inclusive language that conveys gender equality and is gender neutral
4. Do not expect anyone to educate you, instead take things to your supervisor
5. If you make a mistake, just apologise, correct yourself, and then move on
*Ongoing professional development and supervision is required
