Hey Christine, you need to see them to write you the letters saying you're ready for SRS right?

GOOD LUCK! Just be yourself and don't worry :)

Well, typically you see the therapist first... through the hormone letter and the RLE. Once that therapist gives you the SRS letter, she sends a copy to the pyschiatrist (or PhD level psychologist) whom you probably see only one time for the second letter.

Umm no ....I'm in canada British Columbia. 
We don't need letter for hormones .  Its start at your own will.
I will gradually slide into rle as facial hair is being lasered...
So in about 4 months maybe.  My employer is a friend he will
Write out my letter stating I have been in opposite gender role...
So no I'm goinng to get my letters but i want to be in psychotherapy
For at least a year ...

Wow Transiton takes a life of its own...going faster than I realized!!
