The new Bristol location will make it easier for those who live in the South West and South Wales to access our services, cutting down on the time and cost of travelling to one of our existing clinics.
Clinical Psychologist, Dr Rosie Jones, who will deliver the Bristol clinic, explained: "I am delighted that we will be able to offer this service from Bristol. It is open to both new and existing patients. Our psychological assessment sessions are designed to help patients gain a greater understanding of their gender identity and the impact that has on their wellbeing.
"Assessments are a first and vital step on the pathway to gender affirming care, and for our under 18s, at least one session needs to be in-person. We also know that the endless barriers faced by the transgender community can really take their toll. Removing barriers such as travel - for those who prefer to meet in person - is one of the ways we are working to help people gain access to care”.
