CROSS DRESSING WITH DIGNITY | |
SUPPORT COUNSELLING SERVICES
Society labels me a Transvestite
Hi,
and welcome. My name is Dennis or Denise (Kenike in Hawaiian) depending on my
chosen gender expression.
I am married to Madeline my loving and supportive
wife. We have three grown children, who are also supportive, free thinking and
loving people. Society labels me a Transvestite. After years of living with the
burden of shame and guilt this imposed title carries, I now with the support of
my family, am finally proud of who I am. Although I was aware of my feminine feelings
at an early age, the pressure of social conformity was paramount and overwhelming.
It is difficult to be at peace with yourself contrary to society's norm, but when
we cannot find contentment in ourselves it is useless to seek it elsewhere.
Crossdressing
is part of your personality, an expression of who you are. These feelings will
never go away. Crossdressing is not an illness so there is no cure, only acceptance.
Madeline and I feel a large part of our business is within the support counselling
area. Our personal empowerment workshops are based upon the psychosynthesis philosophy
developed by psychiatrist Dr. Roberto Assagioli in conjunction with the powerful
healing qualities of Hawaiian Bodywork which teaches us to centre ourselves through
meditation and to balance our mind, body and soul freeing our spirit to find a
happier healthy life.

need not fear for ourselves any longer, this is our time to be transgender and
proud,
for we need to be role models for our children and for the children
not yet born."
