:Michele
O'Mara, LCSW:
Michele
has worked with over one-hundred men and women with various gender
concerns ranging from fetishes, to cross dressing, to gender identity
disorders. She has assisted dozens of clients in starting hormone
replacement therapy (HRT), and to-date, she has worked with seven
clients who have had sex reasignment surgery, also known as gender
reasignment surgery, and there are numerous others with whom she has
seen completed their Real Life Experience (RLE), who are still saving
money for their surgery. In addition to these clients, Michele also has
many transgender people who have chosen non-medical, and non-surgical
paths to their truest self.
The
answer to each person's gender conflicts are never the same.
Each person brings with them a unique experience, different life
stories, goals, hopes and dreams, and different priorities and concerns.
It is Michele's goal to uncover the dreams you hold for your life, and
assist you in living your truth - whatever that may be, and however that
may look.
