TRANS & NONBINARY THERAPY SF BAY AREA | SEATTLE · ONLINE IN CA, WA & FL

Gender-affirming therapy for trans & nonbinary Asians

A space to explore your gender at your own pace, and a therapist who can write the letters you need for gender-affirming care, without gatekeeping and without asking you to translate your culture.


Sound familiar?

"I think I might be trans, but I don't know where to start."

"I don't feel like a man or a woman, and I'm tired of explaining it."

"My language doesn't even have words for who I am."

"I'm ready for surgery or hormones. I just need the letter."

"My family still uses my old name, and every visit home hurts."

"I've had therapists who made me prove I was trans enough."

You don't have to have it all figured out, and you don't have to prove anything here.

Two ways I can help

Explore, affirm, and move forward.

01

Gender exploration therapy

Whether you're questioning, newly out, or years into transition, this is a place to understand your gender without pressure to land on a label or a timeline.

  • Exploring gender identity and expression, including nonbinary and genderfluid identities
  • Gender dysphoria, and finding moments of gender euphoria
  • Deciding whether and how to pursue social or medical transition
  • Coming out as trans to family, partners, and work
  • Living between cultures that see gender differently
  • Healing from transphobia, misgendering, and religious harm

$250 per 50-minute session

02

Gender-affirming care letters

Letters of support for hormone therapy or gender-affirming surgery, written by a licensed therapist who believes you.

  • Letters for top surgery, bottom surgery, facial surgery, and other procedures
  • Letters for hormone therapy, when your provider asks for one

  • Checked against what your surgeon or insurer requires

How the letter process works

Clear steps, no hoops.

Current WPATH Standards of Care generally call for one letter. Some surgeons and insurers still ask for two, especially for genital surgery, so I'll check what yours requires.

  1. 01

    Reach out

    Book an intake or text me. Tell me what the letter is for and who it's going to.

  2. 02

    Assessment

    [X] online session(s) where we talk about your gender, your goals, and your support. It's a conversation, not a test.

  3. 03

    I write your letter

    Tailored to your surgeon's or insurer's requirements, usually sent within [X] business days.

  4. 04

    Ongoing support, if you want it

    Some people continue therapy through transition. Others just need the letter. Both are welcome.

Language, family, and culture

Being trans or nonbinary in an Asian family can mean navigating more than just pronouns. Some languages don't use gendered pronouns at all, while family titles and honorifics can carry gender in every sentence. Your parents may have no words for who you are, or may hear your transition through the lens of filial duty, face, or faith.

We can work in English or Korean to find language that fits you, prepare for conversations with family, and decide what you want to share, with whom, and when.

Your gender is not a betrayal of your family or your culture.
