What to Expect from Gender-Affirming Nurse Practitioner Care
Gender-affirming care isn’t just medica. It’s personal.
For trans, non-binary, and gender-diverse people, finding care that truly sees and supports you shouldn’t feel rare — it should feel like the baseline.
At Acceptance Nurse Psychotherapy, our gender-affirming nurse practitioners offer care that centres your identity, your needs, and your goals — not assumptions or gatekeeping.
Our providers include nurse practitioners with lived experience — trans, non-binary, and gender-diverse clinicians who understand that affirming care is about more than checkboxes. It’s about being met with empathy, understanding, and respect at every step.
What to Expect in Your First Appointment
Our first session is all about building trust and creating a plan that fits you.
1. Holistic Assessment
We’ll talk about your goals, medical and mental health history, support systems, and what care feels right to you. There’s no rush, no pressure — just space to be heard.
2. Care Planning
If hormone therapy feels aligned, we’ll walk you through options, benefits, and possible side effects. We’ll go at your pace and make sure you have what you need to make informed decisions.
3. Ongoing Support
Our team is here long after the first appointment. From prescription check-ins to mental health support and documentation (like name/gender marker changes), you’ll have access to care that evolves with you.
What Makes Our Approach Different?

Trauma-aware and accessible — we offer virtual care so you can feel safe wherever you are
