Susan's Place Transgender Resources

hey i'm new here and this is my first post. I live in south western arkansas and have had a hard time finding a therapest to help with my feelings. I really would hate online therapy i really neee face to face. I have looked and there are no trans groups around i feel kinda suck, ideas?

Psychology today online is a good starting point. Just make sure you phone and make sure they have gender experience. I have a really good one in Tulsa at Oklahoma State University and it is very affordable ($10.00 a session). If you are near a college or university see if they have a Psychology Department.  :)

Thankyou for your input i looked the local collage and there are no programs like that :(. i broke down and asked my parents to pay for therapy " i thold them i was depressed" my dad laughed and said man up and told me therapy is a wast of time and resources. it made me feel rell bad cause i know coming out will be nearly inposible when my parents belive therapy is for weak minded people.

Here is the list from Susan's front page.  https://www.susans.org/Healthcare/Therapists_and_Counselors/USA/

This is another respected list:  http://www.drbecky.com/therapists02.html

If no one on the list is near you, call the nearest person and ask if they can recommend someone closer to you.  Good luck.

Wow, 10 bucks a session! Unheard of here. Even with insurance it's over $100 here and I don't qualify for sliding scale based on income.
