We offer holistic counseling for parents of transgender children daily. Furthermore, through creative counseling, you can learn to have an attitude that’s about understanding gender dysphoria. From there, you can learn to be your child’s advocate. And, you can express your own feelings in healthy ways.

Holistic counseling for parents raising a child who is gender fluid

Is your little boy seeking girly toys?

Or, is your little girl desiring short hair?

Is your boy requesting that you call him a girl name and that he really is a girl?

Family issues can arise from having a child who is gender questioning

First, more conflict within your family may happen. For example, your spouse may not be as accepting. So, you may be in the process of divorce. Unfortunately, not all spouses feel grateful their child is healthy and alive at the same time. Also, siblings have their own feelings and may struggle with being accepting. Next, you worry that you child will never make friends or will be bullied. And, you’re afraid your child will face rejection from friends, neighbors, and extended family due to cultural, ethnic and religious views. Suddenly, you feel self-blame and wonder if you did something song. Let the team at Wisdom Within Counseling in Niantic, Connecticut help you!
