Transgender Adult Therapy Group
A Safe Space for Healing and Support

At Core Psychotherapy Services in Chicagoland, we understand that the journey of being transgender can be fraught with challenges. To provide a sanctuary for individuals navigating this path, we proudly offer our Transgender Adult Therapy Group, facilitated by the compassionate and experienced Dr. Arti Persaud. Our group therapy support focuses on creating a safe environment where participants can engage in open discussions about their identities and experiences.

A Safe Space for Healing and Growth
Our Transgender Adult Therapy Group in the Chicagoland area creates a welcoming atmosphere designed for authentic expression. Here, individuals can share their stories, discuss societal pressures, and explore the complexities of their identities in a non-judgmental setting. This collective support is invaluable, fostering connections among participants who understand one another. It is this environment that helps promote healing, empowerment, and resilience.

Expertise You Can Trust
Dr. Arti Persaud, Ph.D., leads our therapy group with over two decades of clinical experience. She has worked across multiple settings—from domestic violence agencies to youth mentoring programs—supporting diverse populations. Dr. Persaud specializes in trauma, PTSD, depression, and anxiety, ensuring that each participant benefits from personalized, culturally sensitive care. Her dedication to social justice issues and her extensive training in affirmative care for transgender individuals make her a valuable resource for therapy support services.

Addressing Unique Challenges
Transgender adults often face societal stressors that can lead to emotional and social difficulties. Dr. Persaud’s approach emphasizes understanding these challenges while building resilience strategies tailored to individual needs. By addressing personal, familial, and community support elements, participants can develop healthier coping mechanisms and foster their intrinsic strengths within a supportive community.
