Legend:

Areas highlighted in Yellow mean that a particular Therapist, Psychiatrist or Therapy Center has a Sliding Scale Fee Schedule - What does this mean? If you do not have insurance and are low on money,  your session fee is based upon your income and or what you can pay. The words "I cannot afford therapy" are only excuses when it comes to these very giving professionals - they are here to help despite your financial circumstances!
Areas highlighted in Iridescent Green are positive assessments from patients based on their experience.
Areas shaded in Orange denotes that the therapist has retired - please do not contact for appointments
Areas shaded in Light Blue denotes that the therapist/psychologist/PhD has passed away
Areas shaded in Red denotes that the listing may be very old or the information seems out of date (AOL listings are a red flag as are old email extensions from the 90's such as mindspring.com ) Check 411 or the phone book first

Rhonda Smith
 

From the submitter:

Her office staff was pretty accommodating and Rhonda Smith is Trans – friendly.



I was her first transitioning client, though she has dealt with a couple of transgendered children as well. She researched the Harry Benjamin SOC for guidance, especially for the letters. I saw a therapist that claimed to be a gender specialist and after my initial visit with each of them, I determined that I would pick Ms. Smith because she was easy to talk to, paid for by my insurance, a much shorter drive and they both had the same treatment plan in mind. The nice thing is that she is in the Inland Empire , if there are any guys in need there. The only downside is that she only works 2 days a week (Tues and Thurs afternoons) and only on Thursdays in the summer.

My name is Esteban and I'm a fellow FTM located in san Francisco. I work at a Queer Youth Health Clinic called Dimensions with over 30% trans patients and I've been looking at your site for information for years now. We do Transgender Care- Hormones/Labwork/Referrals/Counseling, etc.  We accept insurance or do sliding-scale for folks without insurance.  I just realized the clinic doesn't have any info on your page yet so I figured I'd send you the goods. 

 
Thank you and keep up the good work, you're helping many people!

Jack Boyan

 


From a patient/client:

I want to highly recommend Jack Boyan as a therapist.  Jack works with a variety of people, but also specializes in working with FTM clientele. 
Jack is my gender therapist, and again, I highly recommend him, and he happily works with FTMs. 
Jack doesn't do a lot of work on the computer, so when I asked him if he would mind if I mentioned him to sites online he emphatically said "Yes, please do."   : )
