Psychology today online is a good starting point. Just make sure you phone and make sure they have gender experience. I have a really good one in Tulsa at Oklahoma State University and it is very affordable ($10.00 a session). If you are near a college or university see if they have a Psychology Department.  :)

Thankyou for your input i looked the local collage and there are no programs like that :(. i broke down and asked my parents to pay for therapy " i thold them i was depressed" my dad laughed and said man up and told me therapy is a wast of time and resources. it made me feel rell bad cause i know coming out will be nearly inposible when my parents belive therapy is for weak minded people.

Wow, 10 bucks a session! Unheard of here. Even with insurance it's over $100 here and I don't qualify for sliding scale based on income.
