Does it cover gender affirming therapists who you can trust coming out to? Will it continue to cover the therapists that works best with you, or will someone you were seeing suddenly become unavailable? Is there a copay? Do you even have a good enough job to not have terrible insurance?

My job isn’t incredible, but the insurance is decent. For me, the copay is $25 a visit, and it’s BCBS, so almost everyone takes it. So I recognize I’m lucky in that sense. But yeah, I was able to find an LGBTQ-affirming practice, and I was actually able to follow my therapist when she briefly changed practices, and my insurance worked the same.

Where you’re located makes a huge difference though, I know there are a lot fewer options out in the country than in a more progressive city

I'm on Medicaid from low income and my therapy is fully covered, zero copay. I'm sure it depends a lot on state and private insurance though :(

On government funded healthcare that not everyone can be on, especially if the right has anything to say about it.
