Tynya Patton, MA, LPC, MHSP

You’ve never felt entirely comfortable in your own skin. It’s as though who you are inside doesn’t align with what you see in the mirror. This is confusing enough, but when you add societal pressures to conform to strict gender norms, it becomes downright hostile. As a result, you’re made to feel like there’s something wrong with you. It’s so isolating to go through life unable to embrace your authentic self. You desperately wish there was some way to find peace and acceptance, but it feels impossible. Every attempt at finding answers has proven futile. You’ve begun to wonder if you’re destined to struggle this way forever.

Let’s find you short-term relief while you build lifelong coping skills. Become more comfortable in your body. Practice greater self-compassion and acceptance. I can’t wait to meet with you and hear your story. Call me today for your free 15-minute consultation. And together (with my sweet Shih Tzus, Navi and Sophie by our sides), let’s help you find peace.

I have experience working with adults who are questioning their gender, experiencing gender dysphoria, anxiety about transitioning, and who are experiencing LGBTQIA+ minority stress. We will work together as a team to reach your therapy goals. I will be your advocate, on your team. I may suggest possibilities you haven't discovered or suggest different ways of thinking. I will listen to you and work with you. I offer online therapy anywhere in Tennessee. Reach out today to schedule your free consultation.
