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 clients tend to struggle with feeling stuck, overwhelmed by their thoughts and feelings, and trouble communicating regarding needs. Often they have trouble sleeping or unwinding or have pressures of being "perfect". They may also be afraid to take chances, be genuine in relationships, and seek out opportunities and sex they deserve. I enjoy working with those struggling with issues related anxiety, trauma, am LGTQI affirming, sex positive.

I work with anxious adults: maybe you have childhood trauma that still effects you, despite having a successful life. Maybe you are pregnant or a new mom struggling to be the parent you want to be. Perhaps you struggle with body image or disordered eating and are interested in intuitive eating. I offer a calm and supportive-- yet gently direct-- approach. I also help highly sensitive people embrace this trait to live more fulfilling lives.

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.

Do you feel like you and your partner are having the same argument repeatedly? Do you wish you could see yourself the way others see you? Do you find yourself getting caught up in situations or relationships that feel unnecessarily difficult? Many of my clients have experienced similar situations. I often work with people to explore topics such as anxiety, communication obstacles, gender, sexual or personal identity development, low self-esteem, life transitions, or relationship concerns.
