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 primarily focuses on Gay Men, Religious Trauma and the LGBTQIA+ Community. I understand that seeking therapy can a difficult decision, but one that can lead to significant growth and healing. It is not uncommon to experience feelings of shame, isolation, and anxiety as well as lack of acceptance from friends, family and social networks. I am here to provide a supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, and work through any challenges you may be facing.

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.

When clients begin therapy, many of them are searching for a space to fully express themselves and to process their struggles. My hope is that you find that here and begin to identify ways to move forward. I work with individuals ages 10 years old and up, and especially enjoy working with those who have experienced trauma and empowering them in the healing process. I believe in the healing power of being fully heard and fully accepted.

Many of us feel exhausted by self-doubt and a lack of things going "right" in our lives. These struggles don't have to rule over you. Feelings of overwhelming guilt, fear and sadness are often road blocks to fulfilling life we all crave. Many of my clients feel stuck in old patterns, and seek ways to make the changes they know they need. I invite clients to experience the profound changes they have been seeking by working collaboratively with them to achieve all their goals.

My clients battle with a range of issues: identity, depression, anxiety, life transitions, communication, self-esteem, trauma, shame/guilt, personality. Clients describe me as a "direct" therapist, meaning, I am able to empathically tell them the truth or assist them in holding themselves accountable for what they are trying to change. A strong therapeutic relationship is the basis for treatment success; therefore, I strive to be my authentic self in forming therapeutic relationships.
