LOS ANGELES—In honor of Pride Month, Grooby’s Kristel Penn is partnering with Gather and Grow OC and The Nest Counseling to offer free readiness letters for trans individuals in California.
“I’m very honored to team up with group therapy practices Gather and Grow OC and The Nest Counseling to make this community offering as accessible as possible to as many trans individuals as possible,” Penn said.
In addition to serving as Grooby’s longtime Creative Director, Penn is also a California-licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT). "A readiness letter from a therapist is needed for trans individuals to access medical gender-affirming care, and we recognized that not everyone has the financial resources to pay for those services from an affirming provider,” Penn said.
Gather and Grow OC and The Nest Counseling are an Associate Marriage Family Therapist (AMFT #139294) organization based in California which works primarily with the LGBTQ community.
