Gender dysphoria occurs when a person experiences persistent distress because their gender identity differs from the sex assigned at birth, affecting mental health, relationships, and quality of life.

These gender dysphoria symptoms often signal that professional, affirming support may be helpful.
- Persistent discomfort about assigned sex at birth
- Strong desire to be recognized or live as a different gender
- Anxiety, depression, or emotional challenges related to gender identity
- Avoidance of situations that emphasize physical sex characteristics
- Desire to explore changes to physical appearance or characteristics
Diagnosis & Evaluation
A comprehensive, respectful gender dysphoria diagnosis helps guide the most appropriate treatment path.
- Detailed discussion of your gender identity history
- Screening for anxiety, depression, trauma, or sleep-related concerns
- Exploration of social, emotional, and medical needs
- Development of a personalized care plan based on your goals
