I know there are websites for my area (Michigan) but I have no idea where you are from. I know going to a support group you can figure out much of this info

Psychology Today has therapists listed by area on-line. Look for gender therapists.

in my opinion it is best to reach out to any other trans people in your area and ask them what doctors/ therapist they used, and who they liked and didn't like.

When I first started I reached out to the community in this forum to find an electrolysis person, and I also use one of the therapists thats listed on this site. Now remember, I live in Asia so you can image the reach this forum had to fufill my needs. AND they were all wonderful. ASk and you will find, there are just so many helpful persons.

Thx for all the good advice. I have a therapist, mainly I'm looking for a electrolysis tech and someone to do HRT. I only found one of each and was hoping there was some kind of national listing. With limited options in my town I now have to look in surrounding areas. Thx

From what I've gathered your therapist recommends you to someone for HRT. I may be wrong (I am going to my therapist for the first time next week so im unsure). As for electrolysis I highly recommend google maps. I've found plenty there. If you'd rather save a lot of money there is a very cheap system for permanent hair removal but its very very time consuming.

Id recommend reading this: http://www.tsroadmap.com/physical/hair/zapdiy.html

I plan on going to get that soon to do it myself :P but like it says it takes a ton of hours.
