Gender-Affirming Support

Many of the people I work with are trans, nonbinary, gender-expansive, questioning, or gender non-conforming. Some are early in their exploration. Others have been living in their gender for years, want support navigating new chapters, or simply wanting a place where they don’t have to explain the basics of their experience.

Some things we might work on together:

  • Exploring gender identity or questioning what feels true

  • Processing dysphoria, gender euphoria, or complicated feelings about your body

  • Preparing for or integrating gender-affirming medical care (HRT, surgery, etc.)

  • Navigating coming out, transition, or changes in relationships

  • Reconnecting with your body and sense of embodiment

  • Exploring sexuality, pleasure, and intimacy in the context of gender

  • Healing from experiences of stigma, discrimination, or rejection

  • Building a life that feels more aligned with who you are

Support for medical transition

If you are pursuing gender-affirming medical care, I can support you with the emotional and practical aspects of that process. This might include:

  • Exploring readiness and expectations

  • Processing fears or excitement around medical transition

  • Writing support letters when appropriate

  • Integrating changes and identity shifts over time

My approach follows an informed consent and client-led model. My role is not to gatekeep your gender, but to support you in making thoughtful, resourced decisions about your body and life.
