Florissant Therapists specializing in Gender Identity

Ashley Bell

If you're exhausted with feeling inadequate, anxious, or overwhelmed, you are in the right place! Which one of these sounds like you? I hate my job; My partner and I fight all the time; I feel stuck in my trauma; I don't know what I want to do with my life. My clients are a mix of couples that would like to work on conflict resolution, young people with anxiety and/or trauma, and high-achieving managers that always feel like they're failing.

Greg Tissi

If you find yourself still unsatisfied after achieving the things you thought would bring contentment then you have arrived. Get off the exhausting treadmill, move with intention, and realign with the trust you have envisioned for yourself. Expect space to be held just for you, room to breathe, and authentic, non-judgmental support. In a sex-positive, trauma-informed, and integrative space, all genders, sexual orientations, ethnicities, ages, and bodies are welcome. Success takes many forms.

Sophie Pellegrini

I specialize in working with queer, transgender, and non-binary folks, as well as women, with a focus on sexuality, gender, intimacy, relationships, and identity. I work with adults as well as LGBTQIA+ couples or those in “non-traditional” relationships. My practice is LGBTQIA+-celebratory, neurodivergent-affirming, sex-positive, non-monogamy-affirming, kink-aware, and sex worker-affirming.

At some point in every person’s life, therapy can be helpful. People who seek therapy are engaging in a healthy, proactive approach towards their life. They are typically seeking to implement positive, lasting life change and growth.

I provide individual, family, and group therapy for transgender, gender-queer, gender questioning, and non binary individuals. In addition to gender therapy, I also provide Psychological Evaluations and Support Letters for Hormone Therapy and Gender Confirming Surgeries.

Therapy should be a place where you feel safe to divulge your darkest secrets while knowing that the person that you confide in, will not only support your journey of self-improvement and healing but help guide you like a beacon in the sea or a flashlight when it’s dark... Because of this, I strive to host a welcoming and safe space for ALL (LGBTQIA, Military/Family, Students, Adults, POC, and etc) who wish to either start or continue their mental health journey of healing.

Yoshiko Hall

We may be a good fit for each other if any of the following statements describe you • You’ve been struggling with your relationships with your family and/or friends • You have a hard time saying no to others, and want to learn how to set appropriate boundaries • You want to connect with yourself and come to a deeper understanding of who you are, and what you desire in life • You live between cultures and can’t seem to find the middle ground.

Melissa Anderson

Life can be incredibly hard at times. We can't control or change what has happened to us, what we needed but didn't get, or how isolating and confusing things can be. Sometimes we don't understand why we feel the way we do, how people interact with us, our reactions, or what to do next. Maybe we don't feel much at all. I know reflecting on our behaviors, thought patterns, and life experiences can be incredibly difficult, and I’m here to support you through that process.

Abigail Green

Do you often feel stuck in your relationship? You care deeply for your partner, but you may argue constantly and struggle to feel connected. I help couples make the changes necessary to feel connected again, as well as create a more satisfying future. I also work with individuals who have been traumatized, helping you heal when you decide to face your truth, challenge years of silence, and are empowered to take control of your story.

Christina Bergren

My clients are people who are looking to start fresh after experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, or any other life altering event. Many of my clients are working individuals who have experienced a life event that has changed their path. Whether it be divorce, a death in the family, or another related family issue I can help you. I also work with school aged children suffering from behavioral concerns such as ADHD, anxiety, or adjustment issues.

Camielle Famous

Hi There! I help couples who want relationships they can actually enjoy. We live in a world of fabulously filtered families and carefully curated couples that can lead to #relationshipgoals overload. Have you found yourself one too many times crying instead of laughing at a post that hit too close to home. Maybe it’s the Superstar Students. Perhaps it’s Patty & Patrick Perfect who are wearing your last nerve. I get it. Its not that you don't have it together, things are just off...

Kathryn Stinson

More than ever, our culture finds itself confronted with the simple fact that many people’s lived experience, relationships, and sense of self do not match the restrictive gender and sexuality boxes we have required people to live in. Gender non-conforming people are refusing to accept these restrictions any longer. And yet, we have so much farther to go. Discrimination, inequality, microaggressions, and hate crimes still impact so many lives. The threats of violence faced by transgender women of color in particular are staggering and unacceptable. You need a therapist who is not only open and affirming, but well informed. I offer both individual and couples therapy for adults and can provide referrals for gender non-conforming clients...

Megan Ferber

I have worked with a variety of individuals and couples around issues such as: depression, anxiety, communication issues, body and sexuality/intimacy issues, and major life transitions. I have a passion for working with clients who are balancing new or chronic illness and those hoping to reconnect with their bodies while seeking weight loss, particularly the bariatric surgery population.

Kyle Brandt-Lubart

My clients are as eclectic and individualized as my therapeutic approach. I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma, as well those struggling with mood dysregulation. I proudly support folx all across the intersectional identity spectrum, and tend to connect especially well with people who are either in touch with or interested in exploring their creative spirit.

Kelly Storck

Gender care work and the support of trans and non-binary humans is the most deliberate work that I do. I see people across the lifespan and can assist with identity exploration, transition needs, minority stress impacts and overall mental wellness. I can include work with loved ones, if desired.

Stephanie Dunn

Do you struggle with feelings of persistent anxiety and depression? Are you having difficulty moving past previous trauma? Or maybe you feel trapped by the pressures of abiding by societal norms? Learn how to accept yourself for who you are, not compare yourself to others, grow in confidence and strength, and write your own story.

Deb Crawford

Most of my clients are LGBTQ+ adults and teens/adolescents. I generally see folx who have anxiety, depression, anger issues, and trauma, which generally all results from childhood trauma and lifespan stress. My clients are people who are trying to better understand why they do what they do and how to be better.
