Many people may want to seek out a transgender therapist or one who identifies as non-binary. You may want to do so if you have past negative experiences with cisgender people, or if you feel more comfortable opening up to someone who does not identify as cismale or cisfemale.

Luckily, there are non-binary/transgender therapists out there who are ready to help you sort through any issues you are struggling with. Whether you are located in downtown Springfield, the suburbs of Springfield, other nearby places such as Florissant, Peoria, or anywhere else in Illinois, Mental Health Match can help you easily find an experienced therapist or counselor who best meets your needs.

Why You Should Choose a Non-binary/Transgender Therapist

Here are a few reasons why you could benefit from seeing a non-binary/transgender therapist:

• They are more likely to understand struggles you may have related to gender and gender norms.
• You may feel more comfortable talking about experiences you’ve had with people who are cisgender.
• You may feel safer talking about discrimination or shame you feel because of who you are or what you look like.
