Northbrook 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.

Alyssa Spada
Student Therapist,
Do you feel "off" or "not like yourself" often? Have you been experiencing more bad days than good? Do you need a space to share your fears or anxieties? Is your child struggling with depressive symptoms? It can be difficult for you or your loved ones to face these obstacles alone. My goal is to provide a safe and secure environment for clients that is free of judgment and provides space for self-exploration. I hope to empower my clients to achieve their full potential through our work together.

Angel Buchanan
Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.
Pressures from society often create a fear of judgment and shame. In turn, we learn to edit our thoughts and emotions without realizing it and feel further away from living an authentic and meaningful life. I believe that having a regular place where you can expect to speak freely and without judgment can bring you closer to feeling a sense of control in forging your life. I understand that beginning therapy can feel intimidating and aim to support you in this initial transition.

Sherin Joseph
Associate Marriage & Family Therapist, ALMFT, M.B.B.S,
I can understand personally how culture can play a role in the hesitancy of seeking mental health services, and I aim to provide a safe space for healing transformation. I offer a client-centered, culturally sensitive, and collaborative experience for therapy. I have years of experience working especially with minority communities, specifically of South Asian descent. Understanding the cultural implications of first and second generation immigrants is important to both myself, and my clients.

I specialize in supporting folks around concerns of gender and sexual identity development, intimacy, anxiety, depression, and grief. My work is organized around trauma. I see trauma in painful and self-shattering violence, and in the daily task of living under oppressive systems that seek to isolate and dehumanize us. I understand that there are many paths to healing, and I look forward to supporting you in yours.

Therapy is an important place to explore many different areas within a person’s life. I believe that developing a collaborative therapeutic relationship is key to therapy. I strive to personalize the treatment of every client because therapy is not a 'one size' fits all concept. Empower yourself by mastering hard to manage emotions and build a mindful life. I strongly believe in the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change, as every individual is unique.

Kyla Dannelke
Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, MA, LCPC.
When I first meet with people, some of my first questions I might ask are: - Do you have difficulty making decisions? - Feel stuck or lost when it comes to your direction in this busy life you've got going on? - Do you feel like things are just simply, unmanageable? I want my clients to feel at home in my office and talking to me about all of these questions, the way you feel comfortable talking to your closest friends and confidants.

Are you in the midst of a crisis? Are you struggling to move on? Maybe you're feeling stuck. Maybe you are sure you're meant to feel more fulfilled but you are having trouble finding your footing on your own. I'll work with you to set intentions, to align yourself with those intentions, and to start using your personal power to actively create your future. I also have a knack for working with kids (age 5 + ) with behavioral struggles. That means their families, too!

Estrella Askren-Gonzalez
Clinical Trainee,
How often have people told you how “responsible” or “mature” you were for your age? Do you feel highly impacted by others’ reactions and emotions? What is it like to consider that these things may have developed as a means to survive chaos, abuse and neglect? We'll work together to embrace what we feel plague us. There's strength and power in all of these things. I work with clients processing childhood trauma + neglect, those looking to improve their relationship with food + their bodies.
