Hi, everyone! I was wondering if anyone knew of any therapists in central TX that could write a letter for me to start T? Preferably in the Georgetown or Cedar Park/Leander area? I did find one in Burnet which isn't too far, but they are listed as a counselor so I don't know if they are able to write a recommendation letter. What degrees would they need to be able to do that?
Welcome to Susan's Place. I didn't find much with a search but there are some that are possible in this link (https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwip4qPv_87QAhUH0WMKHcAWCl4QFggdMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherapists.psychologytoday.com%2Frms%2Fprof_results.php%3Fcity%3DGeorgetown%26state%3DTX%26spec%3D187&usg=AFQjCNHRBTNfLh4VFjOBGSzsEsKGhNmNVg). Make sure they specialize in transgender treatment.

She is not too far away in Austin. I assume someone that can understand more deeply than a run of the mill therapist.
Good Luck

Thank you both for your replies!
@Dawn I was actually considering going to see her, but the problem is I don't drive so it's a little too far for me to ask someone to bring me.
I did find someone, though! I finally told myself to take the first step and I emailed the original counselor I posted about and she is qualified to write letters, so I will be going to see her. The timing is perfect, too, because she just opened a new practice closer to where I live. So glad my anxiety made me wait to email her lol
