Check here for LGBTQ+ resources in your state.
These resources have been vetted by us or have completed a questionnaire about their inclusive practices. We have not personally talked to everyone on this resource list. By using this list you waive QueerDoc and any of their affiliates from any liability for potential harm you experience from participating. Resources here include gender affirming mental health providers, vocal transition resources, hair removal resources, and physical therapists among others.
An additional national resource that we at QueerDoc love: National Queer and Trans Therapists of Color Network.
