Soon I will be seeing a gender therapist (yay!)

What should I ask to make sure I cover my bases?

Thanks!

Congratulations

You might aks:
- how they see their role
- how much experience they have with tg people
- how long usually until a letter for hrt

Ditto

I'll just add something on the note. When I first went didn't plan on bringing it up since I didn't want to appear to pushy. But I got a really good feeling from my therapist and felt comfortable to bring it up.

Thank you for making this thread - I'm hopefully seeing a gender therapist soon, and I appreciate your asking this question, since I needed to know the same thing.
