Stratford Therapists specializing in Gender Identity

Name: TherapyDen LLC
Price range: $

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.

Art therapy may differ from what we think of traditional arts based practices since it can be utilized as a tool to further explore unconscious thoughts and emotions, it isn't necessary to have a background in art making, just the desire to explore your psyche. In our work together we will learn from the process of creating and from the artwork itself.

Misty Ginicola
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ph.D., LPC, CYA-RYT-200
My clients at Walk in Balance Counseling are looking to find balance and joy. I work with folx who have experienced marginalization, sometimes from the very beginning of their lives. They often feel depression and anxiety, and are not sure how to heal. As many families carry cultural and generational trauma, my clients have received the message to fracture and hide parts of who they are for their own safety. I work with clients to reunite those fractures into wholeness.

Lenny Adams
Licensed Professional Counselor,
I work with a variety of clients from adolescents to young adults to military veterans. I tend to work with populations who struggle to be able to define their place in the greater community. Whether they are a member of the LGBTGEQIAP+ community or a military veteran, everyone sometimes struggles with their personal identity and how or where that fits into their life. Clients tend to find it easy to talk to someone who knows their language, and can appreciate their shared experiences.

Loretta Staples
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with those who feel "different," and whose sense of difference creates distress. Issues may include concern about "fitting in," alienation from family members and significant others, and uncertainty about identity, appearance, and community. Left unresolved, these challenges can yield interpersonal conflict, anxiety, depression, and self-harm. Acknowledged, they can provide opportunities for growth and healing, deepening one's sense of self, purpose, and belonging.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Thank you for visiting my profile. If you are looking to work with me, you are ready to roll up your sleeves and do the hard work as a team. Therapy is hard work. It involves going into the outside world and trying new, often scary things, whether that may be with our partners, families, or even ourselves. It's often by taking ourselves out of our comfort zone, and breaking up those same old patterns that are not working for us, that we truly begin to see change.

What if you could have a stronger relationship with your partner today? What if you could learn healthier ways to resolve conflict? What if you could improve your communication skills? What if you could talk about your sexual problem and find solutions? I know it's not easy to ask for help and I understand how difficult it is to feel stuck or stressed out all the time. But you don't always have to be strong and do it alone.
