Bay Area Partners of Trans Men
A Therapy Group for Women with FTM Partners

1st Sunday of each month from 10:30am-12:15pm

When your female partner transitions to male, you can feel a whole mess of feelings, some that may conflict with your partner's excitement around their gender transition. It can be scary to bring your feelings out in the open before you've even worked them out. This therapy group is a safe and confidential space for female partners of trans- masculine identified individuals to share experiences and gain support. Most group members identify as queer, bi or lesbian. Your partner's transition can include medical interventions, hormones, a legal transition or social/gender role changes.

This therapy group will have no more than 8 members at a time. Each person will have a phone meeting with Lisette, free of charge, to make sure the group is a good match. The group will include check-ins, facilitated discussions and sometimes be topic focused or include readings. We will discuss how a gender transition impacts your identity, community, family, sex life and emotional intimacy. Over time, as the group develops, it may become a place where you can gain support around other women's issues like reaching personal goals, reducing your stress and improving your relationships.

Cost: $40/session. To save your space, you will be expected to pay the full monthly fee, whether or not you attend. Credit Cards, PayPal, Cash and Checks Accepted

Location: 870 Market Street, Suite 819, San Francisco
(Powell Street BART station).
