Accessing Hormones and Surgeries
If you would like to get onto the NHS waiting list to access medical interventions like hormones and surgeries, you can do this via your GP. However, long waiting lists mean that many people consider private health care options.
As a psychotherapist my role is to help you explore your feelings, get clearer about what you want and support you through and beyond the process - but I don't offer medical assessments for hormones and surgeries.
However if you are accessing private appointments I am very happy to write you a letter confirming our work together if you choose to have therapy with me. Therapy isn't a requirement of gaining a medical diagnosis in the UK - but some gender clinics will suggest it when they think it might be helpful.
Trans Actual have a useful list of private clinics with psychologists who offer medical gender assessments. You can find these details here.
Contact me if you would like to discuss more about how I can support you.
