FAQ
Things people ask.
Letters, chosen names, relationships, privacy and more.
Do I need a letter to start hormones?
Often not. Many Philadelphia clinics, including Mazzoni Center, prescribe hormones through informed consent without a letter. If your provider or insurer does ask for one, I can usually complete it in a single session.
How many sessions does a surgery letter take?
Usually two sessions. The first is a conversation about your goals and support, the second covers recovery planning. I send the letter within five business days of your final session.
Do you work with polyamorous and ENM relationships?
Yes. I work with polyamorous and ethically non-monogamous relationships, including triads and polycules. I never treat non-monogamy as the problem to be solved.
Are you LGBTQIA+?
Yes, I am part of the community. I am happy to share more about myself during a consult if that matters to you.
Can I use my chosen name on intake forms and billing?
Yes. Your chosen name and pronouns are used everywhere I control, including my portal, emails and sessions. When insurance requires a legal name, I keep it to the claim itself and tell you exactly where it appears.
Do I have to be out to work with you?
Not at all. You do not have to be out to anyone, including yourself. I can also schedule telehealth at times and in ways that protect your privacy at home.
