Columbus 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.

Rachel Adler
Psychotherapist, LCSW, LICSW
I'm passionate about working with anyone who is motivated to really 'do the work' and ready to embark on a powerful journey that therapy can offer. I believe that the key factor in helping my clients reach their goals and live their most authentic lives starts and always comes back to the therapeutic relationship we develop. I have a special interest in working with teens and young adults, particularly those who may have had a less than positive experience trying therapy in the past.

You've got history. You've done some therapy before. You understand cognitively what and why, but now you're ready to dive deep and make the lasting changes in your life so that you get out of your way and break through. This is about discovering who you want to be in the future while healing the past, resolving regrets, and holding yourself accountable. It's a promise that your future you will thank you for. The more you put into it now, the better your outcomes will be.

Sarah Newcomer
Marriage & Family Therapist, MS, IMFT
Let's face it, sometimes relationships are a walk in the park...Jurassic Park. You can't stop arguing. Intimacy is non-existent. You want to feel connected again, you feel so distant from each other. You need someone who can understand your relationship, really see your patterns that make you feel so stuck, and can help you feel close again. As a relationship specialist I have dedicated my entire practice to helping relationships of all kinds heal and find their spark again.

Michael McDonnell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker,
Throughout my career, I have worked in every level of care and can help my patient navigate the complicated world ahead of them, both inside and outside of the world of mental health. Having worked in crisis oriented organizations, I have seen those through their darkest times and seen their successes and ability to reach their goals, as defined by them. A firm belief I have developed is that as intimidating as whatever your particular challenge is, you can overcome it.
