Online Therapy - Anybody know if these places are legit?

[Nero]

I'm really frustrated with my therapist, am unable to find another without driving a long ways and really like the idea of this:

http://www.gendertherapist.com/

this one's by telephone:

Anybody know if these are legit? I'll only do it if I can get my surgery letter through it. (at least if I have the letter, I'll feel like I've made some progress, even though I can't do it right now).

Some of them are honest, I did use one in the past, the first thing I did was check their license and professional references.

I checked the card they show for membership and they showed two cards, one expiring May 2008 and a second one expiring May 2009.  It does list phone numbers of the ACA that you could call to verify their standing with the organization.

I noticed a misspelled word in the first "site." It was "transender" instead of "transgender." I don't know if that is a good reason to say it is a bull->-bleeped-<- site though.

I didn't really do any heavy checking on either site...

Hi Nero. this may be the same site as Dr Bushong,  http://www.transgendercare.com  I have in the last year talked to other TS that have used them and have heard nothing bad. Several others have said they used long-distance Therapy but I have dont know who they used.
The one I mentioned has been around for a long time though so I would think they are reputable. As with all Therapists you need to ask them questions too about their track records. Hugs and I hope that helped some.

yeah but can guys like us trust him? He seems to speak primarily to the mtf condition. Admittedly I haven't checked out his entire site yet but when he says "what is transgender" and only speaks to mtf...
