GENDER RELATED SERVICES

​

Gender related counseling and coaching involves anything related to gender - ranging from initial questioning to transition steps (or no steps) to solidifying your identity.  I offer a unique perspective, as I personally identify as gender diverse (AFAB, Non-Binary, Masc-Presenting, they|them), and have both a personal and professional expertise not often found in the counseling world.  I am member of WPATH (World Professional Association of Transgender Health) and follow the current standards of care. I am well-versed in writing HRT and surgery referral letters and am committed to making the process as easy, cost-effective, and quick as possible so that you can move forward in your transition journey (I’ve been there!).  

​

Common topics include: 

​

Resolving questions related to gender

Cost: 

Fee for standard 50-minute session is $125.00. All fees are private pay via credit/debit cards, or health/flex savings account.  Unfortunately, I do not accept insurance; however, some insurances consider me to be an out-of-network provider (for therapy, not coaching) and you may be eligible for reimbursement, depending on your plan.  If so, I can provide documentation that can be submitted to your insurance. 

​

HRT/Surgery Referral Letters: 

I am often asked how many sessions it takes to obtain an HRT or Surgery Referral Letter.  It takes just one session to gather the information needed for your letter. All letters are written using an informed consent assessment model - meaning, there is NO gatekeeping in this process.  I also do not charge any additional fees to write a letter, as I consider this to be part of your session fees.
