Gender exploration is a complex and personal journey. For many, gender exploration can be a time of both excitement and uncertainty. At Inspire Behavioral Health, we understand the importance of creating a safe and supportive environment for individuals navigating this process. We offer a place for all individuals to explore their identity, with gender exploration therapy and gender-affirming care in Virginia.
Gender Dysphoria and Mental Health
Gender dysphoria is a condition where an individual experiences distress or discomfort due to a mismatch between their assigned sex and their gender identity. We want patients to understand that gender dysphoria is a valid experience. Patients experiencing gender dysphoria may have issues that impact mental health and well-being. While gender dysphoria is not a mental illness, there are mental distress issues associated, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts.
Support and Therapy for Gender Affirming in Virginia
Gender-affirming therapy is a specialized form of treatment that helps individuals explore and understand their gender identity. We invite patients to openly and safely discuss their feelings, challenges, and goals. The desired outcome of gender-affirming therapy is for individuals to develop coping strategies, address any underlying mental health concerns, and make informed decisions about their gender exploration. We work with patients through gender exploration and identity development, including non-binary identity development and transition exploration and support. The knowledgeable and compassionate team of mental health professionals at Inspire Behavioral Health wants all patients to have an authentic and safe place to explore their gender identity.
