Letters of support for gender-affirming medical treatment:
Transitions Therapy LLC provides assessments for gender-affirming healthcare. As a seasoned, trans competent therapist, Sarah Gilbert, LCSW has great familiarity with the process of writing letters of support for cross-hormone treatment and surgical procedures as well as the WPATH Standards of Care. This is offered as a stand-alone service; meaning that you can schedule sessions with Sarah just for an assessment, rather than ongoing therapy. As someone who’s committed to not be a gatekeeper in trans healthcare, Sarah does not require a set number of sessions before this letter will be completed. People may use insurance benefits for sessions, or pay the self pay rate of $160 per session.
Clinical Consultation:
For licensed mental health providers who need one-time or ongoing consultation regarding their work with trans-identified clients, Transitions Therapy LLC offers individual and group clinical consultation. Investment: $160 per one hour session, $80 for a 30 minute session.

Reviews from past training participants:
“Thank you so much. Training was awesome and I appreciated the centering of lived trans experiences through videos, sharing of books, etc. Also, the resources list is phenomenal!”
“It was really cool that Sarah started the training acknowledging that she is cis and not walking around the world as a trans person and how that has an impact on her knowledge base. I have never heard someone do that and as a non-binary person, it was much appreciated.”
“Most continuing education says you will leave with skills you can immediately use but most often fall short. This training said there would be immediate take away skills and ideas and it was definitely true!!’
‘Awesome training! I was sharing information with my families the same day.”
“Sarah was a great presenter and is clearly very knowledgeable. She created an environment for attendees to feel safe and vulnerable to ask difficult questions. I feel much more knowledgeable and prepared to better serve this community. Thank you!”
“Fantastic training, and thank you for having such an affirming environment. Sometimes therapist spaces don’t do that, so it was nice to be a little vulnerable and make actual connections.’
“Loved this training, trainer was super engaging, which is difficult in an 8 hour virtual training!”
“This training was very informative!!!!!! I loved how she brought out cis bias.”
