Transgender Counseling
Do you know who you are inside but are afraid to tell others? Do you worry that coming out might harm your relationships? Are you encountering opposition or lack of empathy from your family of origin? Did you transition years ago but want a therapist who gets trans identity?
Together, in a supportive environment, we can attend to concerns you may have, including
- Dealing with the disconnect between mind and body
- Becoming comfortable with a gender identity that does not conform to societal norms
- Coming out
- Dealing with external and internal transphobia
- Finding and building community
- Exploring gender presentation
- Engaging in self-exploration and self-redefinition
- Attending to relational concerns (e.g., couples therapy, family of origin issues, family therapy for trans families and their children)
- Considering transitioning
- Providing support for the partner of of someone transitioning
- Exploring the intersection of transphobia with other types of oppression, such as race, ethnicity, and class
- Dealing with discrimination
