Transgender Therapy in Denver
Gender-affirming therapy with LGBTQ therapists and allied therapists in Denver.
Affirming therapists for the Denver transgender community
Navigating gender identity can be a complex and deeply personal journey. At My Denver Therapy, we understand the unique challenges faced by transgender and non-binary individuals.
We offer a safe, supportive, and affirming space to explore your identity, process your experiences, and receive compassionate gender affirming therapy. We have multiple therapists who are part of the LGBTQ+ community and its allies.
Understanding gender identity
Gender identity is a person’s internal sense of being a man, woman, both, neither, or another gender. It’s distinct from biological sex assigned at birth. The journey of understanding and expressing one’s gender identity is unique. We honor the diverse spectrum of gender experiences, including:
- Transgender/Trans: An umbrella term for people whose gender identity differs from their sex assigned at birth.
- Non-binary/Genderfluid/Genderqueer: Terms used by individuals whose gender identity falls outside the traditional male/female binary.
- Cisgender/Cis: Describes individuals whose gender identity aligns with their sex assigned at birth.
At My Denver Therapy, we recognize that everyone has a gender identity, whether transgender or cisgender. We strive to create an inclusive environment where all gender identities are affirmed and celebrated.
Our Approach to Gender Affirming Therapy
We offer specialized gender affirming therapy services tailored to the needs of transgender and non-binary individuals. Our therapists provide support in areas such as:
- Exploration of Gender Identity: We offer a non-judgmental space to explore your feelings, thoughts, and experiences related to gender.
- Transition Support: We can assist with navigating the social, emotional, and medical aspects of transitioning, including coming out.
- Mental Health Concerns: We address mental health challenges that may arise, such as anxiety, depression, and self-esteem issues, which can be exacerbated by societal stigma and discrimination.
- Relationships and Family Dynamics: We provide guidance and support in navigating relationships with family, partners, and friends.
- Coping with Social Stigma: We help develop coping strategies for dealing with discrimination, harassment, and other challenges.
We understand the challenges of the trans community
We acknowledge the systemic challenges faced by transgender individuals and the LGBTQ community, including:
Discrimination: Transgender people often experience discrimination in employment, housing, healthcare, and other areas.
Violence and Harassment: Transgender individuals are disproportionately targeted by violence and hate crimes.
Mental Health Disparities: The impact of stigma and discrimination can contribute to mental health challenges.
Access to Healthcare: Finding affirming and competent healthcare providers can be difficult.

Meet our therapists
My Denver Therapy is one of the largest therapy private practices in Colorado with many of the best, most requested mental health therapists in the Denver Metro area.
As a therapist-owned practice with over 100 years of combined experience, we care about seeing our clients heal, grow, and thrive. We’re one of the only therapy practices in Colorado with licensed professional counselors, marriage and family therapists, addiction counselors, social workers, and psychiatric nurse practitioners who actively see new clients in person and online.
Whether you’re an adult, teen, young adult, couple, or family, our inclusive therapist team is built to specialize in clients of all ages, faiths, backgrounds, and life experiences.
Our practice started with one therapist in a shared office suite, but we’ve grown to help thousands of people in Colorado by providing in-person therapy at our conveniently located Denver Metro area counseling offices in Denver, Greenwood Village, and Lone Tree, plus online therapy for clients throughout Colorado. Because of the way our team works and has grown over time, our therapists also provide consultation for other therapists and private practices throughout the Denver Metro area.
Our therapists provide some of the most innovative, effective, and in-demand forms of therapy available today, including EMDR, Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, CBT, DBT, and IFS. We also have more therapists trained in Ketamine-assisted therapy, EMDR, and more teen therapists and young adult counselors than nearly every other private practice in Denver.
We know that our clients want to find the best therapists in Denver, so our team includes therapists of different ages with a wide range of backgrounds, specialities, and experiences to help you find the right fit. We’ll match you with one of our therapists who is the best for your goals, location, budget, schedule, and what you want to work on to help you get started quickly.
We’re out of network for insurance, Tricare, and are unable to take Medicaid or Medicare, but most of our therapists’ rates are lower than the local and national averages for therapy. Also, we don’t charge separate intake or administration fees or charge more for specialized therapy methods like EMDR.
All of our therapists take a client-focused approach to counseling and approach each session with a commitment to your progress and growth.
