I’m a double board certified child & adult psychiatrist. I work with two age groups: 3 to 17-year-olds with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD/trauma, autism, & OCD. I’m LGB, Trans, Non-Binary & Genderqueer affirming with related training & experience. I also see 18 to 32-year-olds who are BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color), autistic or LGBTQIA2S+, especially gender diverse folks. I can do assessments for gender affirming surgery. I’ve limited my adult intakes to improve access to care for marginalized populations due to a shortage of psychiatrists trained in providing affirming care.

FAQ - Gender-affirming Psychiatrists
How can psychiatrists help transgender individuals?
Transgender individuals experience significantly higher rates of anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health challenges. These disparities may be rooted in systemic issues such as barriers to accessing supportive healthcare. Many transgender people also experience gender dysphoria—emotional distress arising from a mismatch between their gender identity and the sex assigned at birth—which can impact mental health as well. These unique challenges often require care from mental health professionals who are knowledgeable and experienced in working with transgender clients. Supportive treatment is crucial for improving psychological well-being and fostering resilience in the face of ongoing stressors.
What does treatment look like for transgender clients?
Psychiatrists with expertise in transgender mental health possess a deep understanding of gender identity, the emotional and social aspects of transitioning, and how marginalization affects psychological health. They may prescribe medication for psychiatric conditions if necessary and ensure that such medications are compatible with any concurrent hormone treatment. Many psychiatrists also integrate or recommend evidence-based behavioral therapies to transgender clients. Approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or other trauma-informed care interventions can help transgender individuals process trauma, manage dysphoria, and develop coping strategies to navigate life challenges. Therapy may also support identity development, improve self-esteem, and strengthen social support systems.
How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in transgender mental health?
The Psychology Today directory is a valuable tool for locating psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) who specialize in transgender mental health. The platform allows users to filter by clinical focus and provider identity. When reviewing provider profiles, look for inclusive language and explicit mention of transgender-specific experience. It may also be helpful to ask potential providers about their experience supporting transition-related care, whether they can assist with letters for gender-affirming treatments, and how they collaborate with other members of a care team. Practical considerations—such as appointment availability, telehealth options, and insurance acceptance—are also important when choosing a provider.
