🌈 Gender-Affirming Therapy for Transgender and Non-Binary Clients

Inclusive care that honors your truth, your story, and your healing

At Dow Counseling Services, I offer a space where transgender and nonbinary clients are welcomed with respect, curiosity, and care. Whether you're exploring identity, navigating transition, processing trauma, or simply seeking a therapist who truly sees you—I’m here to support you.

I understand that therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when past experiences have involved misgendering, invalidation, or assumptions. My practice is rooted in affirming care, meaning I meet you exactly where you are—with your language, your values, and your lived experience at the center.

🧠 What You Can Expect

  • Gender-Affirming Documentation & Support I provide letters for gender-affirming care and collaborate with medical providers when needed—always with your consent and autonomy in mind.

  • Trauma-Informed, Relational Healing Many transgender clients carry the weight of relational trauma, systemic harm, or chronic invalidation. I integrate EMDR, attachment-based therapy, and somatic awareness to support healing that honors your whole self.

  • Safe Space for Exploration Whether you're questioning, transitioning, or simply seeking a place to process life’s complexities, therapy here is a space to be curious, honest, and empowered.

  • Inclusive Language & Practices I use affirming language, respect pronouns, and continually educate myself to ensure my care reflects the evolving needs of the trans community.

💬 Who I Work With

  • Transgender and nonbinary folks aged 16+, college students, and adults

  • Clients navigating gender identity alongside CPTSD, high-functioning anxiety, or perfectionism

  • Those seeking therapy that affirms their cultural, relational, and emotional experiences

You Deserve Therapy That Honors Your Full Humanity
