Individual therapy for adults, teens, and children.

Caroline, a former singer and voice teacher, offers vocal feminization services as a part of both the group therapy and program and individual therapy. Vocal feminization is a key component of “blending-in” as a woman for male-to-female (MTF) transgender individuals. Also offered is Feminine Comportment, which enhances the “blending-in” ability of MTF individuals.

One-on-one vocal masculinization for the individual who is not fully satisfied with testosterone therapy.

Group therapy is offered in three forms:

• Adult Groups meets once per week for 8 weeks (total of 8 sessions).

• Family Group:  for parents and their trans teens/trans children, this group meets once per month for four months (total of four sessions).
  

• FTM Group: for individuals 9 to 19 years of age.

To join a group, please call Michelle Farrell, at 816-305-0943 to register or e-mail The Transgender Institute.

Our Feminine Immersion Program was specifically created to assist women in their transition by helping develop their feminine beauty, charm and confidence in a supportive and caring environment.

Children, teens, and adults benefit enormously from time spent with more seasoned and mature transgender individuals. In a typical case, a transgender individual will visit with his/her/their mentor and therapist. If the connection works, as it often does, the mentor becomes a trusted part of the family, a layperson/former patient on whom the child, teen, or adult can depend on for advice, a listening ear, and to serve as a life model.

Our therapists, including a Registered Play Therapist, work with children of all ages, along with their families. This population requires special expertise in the developmental stages of childhood, as well as how gender dysphoria often affects and manifests in young children. Our therapists will provide referrals to pediatric endocrinologists as needed.
