If you believe your child or teen is exploring their gender identity, questioning about their gender identity, or knows they are trans or gender expansive (such as non binary, gender non-conforming, genderqueer, etc.), you have come to the right place. I work with youth who are exploring their gender identity and expressions or who are trying to process what it means to be trans or gender expansive. We can talk about options, such as how to transition socially, what medical options might look like, and how talk to people who don’t understand. Additionally, if exploring gender identity and related issues is not the main reason you are seeking counseling for yourself or your child/teen, I can provide a safe and affirming space so we work on other struggles.
I also help parents and caregivers navigate through this often confusing time. I have some resources for children and teens in my resources page as well for parents to use – including educational books, videos, and social media pages.
