Hello all,
As some of you know I'm just now starting out on my journey towards transition. I was having some trouble finding the right therapist last week. The one I wanted is a WPATH trained and recommended therapist, but sadly she wouldn't be able to get me in until August or September. But she did send me a list of other local therapists she recommends if I decided not to wait that long.
So I've come to the conclusion that instead of waiting for the therapist I really want, I'm going to go with one of the people from her list instead. I've even chosen the one I want from that list. I'm just waiting for her to get back to me to let me know how many visits my insurance will cover.
I talked to her on the phone for about 10 minutes and I felt very at ease with her. She will definitely write "the letter" for me when it comes time for that. Even though she hasn't been WPATH trained, she's very experienced working with transgender people. Oh and she's an activist in the LGBTQ community, so that gives her a little bit more street cred in my book.
I know that a lot of you gave me excellent advise last week in one of my other posts, so I thought you'd like to be kept up to speed with what's going on with me.
Thank you all for the excellent advice, and also for letting me know how much you care about me. That means a lot to me!
xoxo
