"I currently work at Howard Brown Health Clinic in Chicago. Howard Brown is the midwest's largest health center serving the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgendered community. feel free to check out our website at : http://www.howardbrown.org. I began my work with the Transgendered community during my graduate training years and my research focused on documenting the gender experiences of my participants and considering how therapists could be more open to gender experiences. i have been working with the Trans community for about 5 years now and enjoy my work very much. I know a lot of my clients hear of me by word-of-mouth. but, they also report many attempts to access an understanding and open therapist by looking online and are frustrated by the small lists for their area and the typically high costs of private practice therapists. One aspect of Howard Brown that is especially helpful to my clients is that we offer a sliding fee scale, which means we match the fee to their income. So money is no longer a deterrent to access the support that everyone should be entitled to. In addition, at Howard Brown, I work with a number of other highly supportive therapists who have experience supporting the Trans community."

"Aside from in-person counseling, I am also starting to offer e-counseling and phone counseling for people who are unable or not ready to meet with a therapist in person. I am aware that there are a lot of trans folks in places (like the military) where they are isolated and do not have access to a therapist who can help them in their gender journey. So I’m working on finding ways to make myself accessible to people that way as well. Affirmative Counseling specializes in providing therapy which celebrates and supports gender & sexuality diversity. We provide gender counseling, hormone/surgery recommendation letters, and support to people who are transgendered, transexual, intersexed, gender queer or questioning. We offer individual, couple, and family therapy. Office visits, outreach, telephone counseling and e-counseling."
