What if my therapist does not support me in my transition? You won’t get that here. We don’t tell people they should not transition. That is not the decision of the therapist and you don’t need a therapist’s approval. Our job is to help you make your transition successful.
What if I’m not sure whether or not I’m transsexual, or a cross dresser, or lesbian, or I’m just confused? These are very common conversations we have with people who are in the beginning stages of the process. Whether you realize it or not, you have experienced a lot of negative programming about being transsexual from mainstream society. The point is that
if you are asking these questions, something is definitely going on and we are the experts at helping you sort it all out.
How long will this take? How many sessions will I need to get my letter? We follow the World Professional Association for Transgender Health Standard of Care 7 guidelines. We do not hold people to a certain length of time in order to “get a letter”. If you are ready after the first session, then we are ready to support that. Our goal in working with you is to help you achieve the most successful transition possible by improving your relationship with yourself.”

“My specialization is with the Gender Variant community. Gender variance is not a pathology nor a ”disorder” to be remedied. Gender, much like sexual orientation, exists on a natural continuum. The dysphoria that Trans folks often suffer from comes directly from the oppression and discrimination inflicted by a largely Transphobic culture.
In addition to individual and couples counseling, I offer two free support groups to the community. The first is for Trans*-Masculine individuals and meets every 2nd Saturday from 10-11:30 a.m. at ALSO Out Youth in Sarasota. The second is for Loved Ones (family, parents, partners and friends) and meets every 3rd Saturday from 10-11:30 a.m. at ALSO Out Youth. If interested in either, please contact me for a brief screening.”
