Gender Affirming Care Letters

Letters of Support for Gender Affirming Care

Most medical professionals and institutions require a formal letter of support from a mental health professional before providing gender affirming surgery. I have experience providing letters of support for clients seeking gender affirming care, and I am happy to write letters on behalf of new and existing clients.

​

Gender Affirming Care Letter Process:

• Collaborative Assessment: We'll discuss your feelings, experiences, and hopes related to your gender identity and the desired care.

• Comprehensive Letters: Following our session, I will provide a form letter highlighting alignment between DSM-V criteria for gender dysphoria and the information you provide to highlight the benefits of your desired care from a clinical perspective.

• Full transparency: I will share a copy of the letter with you, and we will work together to ensure you are comfortable with the information shared within the letter.

​

Details:

• Letter assessment sessions can be completed as part of longer term individual or sex therapy, OR may be accessed via one-time, virtual assessment sessions.

• Letters are provided on a self-determined, pay-what-you-can basis from $1-75.
