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 ideal client is growth-minded, intentional, and self-reflective. We will work together to create insights and shifts in personal patterns through both education and exploration. I utilize a blend of resources backed by research in attachment theory, family/relational systems, cultural/social/religious systems, trauma, the Enneagram, self-compassion, vulnerability, and neuroscience.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

Has your life become messy and unmanageable? Lately, are you overwhelmed and not feeling quite like yourself?

The counseling process requires openness and vulnerability that can be overwhelming. Talking to someone new about your concerns, fears, or anxieties can be intimidating. Bearing your inner self is not easy and requires a strength you may not know you possess. My promises to you: I will never judge you or make you feel unheard. I will create an environment where you feel safe. You are a unique and beautiful being and stronger than you realize. I would be honored to walk with you on this journey.
