Hi,
Sorry, I accidently hit the mouse pad and hit enter. I live in the Washington DC area on the MD side and I have finally decided to go ahead and transition. My current therapist is doing some research to try and find a someone who spcializes in Gender Identity Disorder but I figured I would search on my own as well. Does anyone know of any Therapists/ Doctors in the DC, Southern MD or Northern VA?
Okay Jami,
