Hi, my name is Lorena and I have been dealing with gender dysphoria for many years...it has got to the point that I finally have accepted that I need to talk to somebody. Does anyone know of a good therapist in Birmingham or in a nearby city? I would prefer a female therapist...I just feel I would be able to open up about what I feel better. Thanks
Hi, my name is Lorena and live in Birmingham, AL. For many years I have been dealing with gender dysphoria (since I remember)...I have tried to suppress it because of fear and family, but it has finally got to the point that I have accepted that I need to talk to somebody. Does anyone know of a good therapist in Birmingham or in a nearby city? I would prefer a female therapist...I just feel I would be able to open up about what I feel better. I have been looking on my own but there appears to be nobody with good experience. Thanks
Here is a listing from Psychology Today of therapists in Birmingham, Alabama, with "transsexual" expertise:
