Gender identity issues, sometimes called gender dysphoria or gender conflict, occur when an individual feels an inconsistency between their physical gender and the gender they truly feel or identify with. This most commonly exhibits itself as a physical discomfort with the gender one was assigned at birth, including the feeling of being in the wrong body. Children with gender dysphoria may express disgust of their own genitals or a certainty that they will grow up to be the opposite sex. Some individuals with gender identity issues treat this feeling by physically modifying their bodies to better match their gender identity. Gender dysphoria comes with it an increased risk for depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, and bullying. If you are experiencing gender identity issues, reach out to one of TherapyDen’s qualified professionals today.

My practice specializes in helping adults work through their struggles and challenges with anxiety, depression, adjustment challenges due to life stage changes (i.e., separation/divorce, grief, marriage, birth of child, empty nesting, job loss, etc.), social skills challenges, coping skills challenges, postpartum depression, parenting struggles, and social/life skills. I work with each client (via telehealth) to create a safe, comfortable, and non-judgmental space to build trust.

Our clients are individuals who may be hesitant to begin therapy, but after meeting during a free consultation, they quickly recognize the benefits of meeting with one of our experienced, compassionate, and open minded therapists. Many individuals we meet with have had experiences with anxiety, stress, depression, difficulties in relationships and at work, and have experienced trauma at some point in their lives.
