She is an expert, a full-time parent of two, a licensed Clinical Psychologist, Health Service Psychologist, and a Board-Certified Music Therapist with over 20 years of clinical experience working in the mental health field. At present, Dr. Cook lives in Chicago with her life partner (married in 2008), two children, and two dogs. 

Shares her tips on what your kids want you to know about coming out:

1.    This isn’t about you.

2.    It’s very scary.

3.    Please don’t ask if it’s a phase.

4.    Go gently with the personal questions.

5.    Don’t ask “Are you the boy or the girl in the relationship

6.    We don’t want to lose your love, but we can’t deny who we are.  

7.    This isn’t a choice.
