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.
Our experiences in life shape us, but they do not have to define who we are. I work with people who are going through life transitions, survivors of trauma, and/or who are experiencing depression and anxiety. Or, maybe you are at a point in your life where you are ready to live your life more authentically, you may be searching for support as you begin this new journey. Depth therapy may help you to understand more about yourself and bring balance between your inner and outer worlds.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and stuck. At times, these feelings may affect your work, relationships, or self-esteem. It's possible that you do not know why you feel this way, but you would like to learn more about how your mind works. You want to find purpose, understand your past and your relationships, and learn how to navigate your world better. You would like to be: a more confident, more relaxed, happier version of yourself.

I am enthusiastic about working with a diverse range of clients. I am dedicated to providing safe and accepting space for queer and transgender clients to both explore their identities and receive information about navigating institutional barriers we often face.
