Letters of Support for Gender affirming care

I believe it is essential for trans and non-binary (TGNB) people to have access to gender affirming medical care, including surgical options. In order to access surgery, insurance companies and surgeons currently require letters of support from a licensed mental health provider. I offer assessments in order to write a letter of support to give to your surgeon and/or insurance provider. We will discuss your expectations, hopes, and plans around the surgical process, as well as your experience of gender dysphoria or gender incongruence (a current requirement for surgery).

At this time, I am able to assess adults (18+) residing in New York. If you are looking for a letter of support in a different state, you can visit GALAP’s directory.
