Your first step is google.com (http://google.com)

Search for transgender/gender therapists in your area, you can also see if there are any lgbt centers in your area and they will most-likely have some resources for trans-friendly therapists. Your general practitioner may be able to give you some suggestions as well.

Since your family is supportive you could probably have your parents call around too.

Which country do you reside in?

People may be able to make personal recommendations if they know where you are from.
