NO TRANS PATIENT SHOULD LOSE TIME ON PAPERWORK.
Every letter is DSM-5 aligned, WPATH-informed, and insurer-ready. Each is written with the urgency of advocacyand the precision of clinical science. That’s why over 400 approvals have cleared without delay.
Hundreds of Approvals
I’ve written over 400 gender dysphoria support letters, with an approval rate that consistently clears insurers the first time. Every one is tailored, evidence-based, and designed to get patients moving forward without delay.
Patients Who Move Forward
Clients tell me the letter was the step that finally unlocked their surgery. Fewer denials, fewer setbacks, and faster approvals mean patients get the care they’ve been waiting for, and coordinators see smoother scheduling.
Licensed, Experienced, Reliable
I’m a licensed clinical social worker with nearly 15 years in practice, trained in gender-affirming care. Each assessment draws on DSM-5 criteria, WPATH-informed standards, WHODAS, and PHQ-9 to deliver letters that insurers recognize as credible and complete.
Clinically Precise
Every letter is grounded in DSM-5 criteria, WPATH-informed standards, WHODAS, and PHQ-9. That means clean, evidence-based documentation that insurers accept and surgeons trust with nothing missing and nothing extra.
Fast, No-Fuss Process
From intake to follow-up, everything is built to move quickly. Patients are scheduled fast, letters turned around short, and updates handled promptly, so approvals don’t stall and surgeries stay on schedule.
