How OICBT Helps With Gender Identity

Questions related to gender identity can involve exploration of one’s internal sense of self, experiences of authenticity, belonging and the impact of social and cultural factors. OICBT provides evidence-based support for gender identity through care that is matched to your needs, goals and preferences. The clinic uses a personalized intake process to recommend a strong service fit, and OICBT clinician profiles identify gender identity and related mental health concerns as relevant areas of focus. Depending on fit, care may include individual therapy matched to identity, goals, values and mental-health needs.

  • Care is collaborative, client-centred and guided by research-informed recommendations.
  • Treatment may draw on CBT, ACT, DBT, EFT, interpersonal therapy and Schema Therapy.
  • Goals may include symptom relief, practical skills, resilience, relationships, daily functioning and values-based action.
