Letter of Support for Gender Affirming Procedure
Assessment & Letter
Undergoing a gender affirming procedure can be filled with hope, anticipation, and uncertainty. I offer assessment and letter supporting your gender affirming procedure in a manner that is caring and structured. It’s a chance for you to ask any questions and discuss what may be vulnerable, so that you can go forward with clarity.
What it isn’t.
This is not a pass/fail test about whether you are “really” transgender or nonbinary, or “deserve” gender affirming procedure. It’s an opportunity to slow down and make sure you’re supported, especially when you’ve already been through a lot to arrive at this point.
What is it?
Mental health assessment and support letter for gender affirming procedures are designed to support ethical, informed consent. We’ll focus on emotional preparedness, logistical and social support planning, and discuss next-steps.
Goal
My goal is to help you feel informed, supported, and steady. As genderqueer myself, I understand it can feel like gatekeeping to go through the multiple steps to obtain a support letter. I approach this process with humility, give you due consideration, and help you feel empowered.
