Additional Support and Resources

 

I know that reaching out for support can take courage, and I want to acknowledge the care behind that step. At times, my availability for returning inquiries or scheduling appointments may be limited, and I may not be able to respond as quickly as I would like. Thank you for your understanding.

For this reason, I have created the resource list below as an additional source of support while you consider your next steps. I will continue to update and expand these resources over time.

If you are experiencing an emergency or feel that you may be at risk, please seek immediate support by contacting your local emergency room or by calling or texting 988, the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, which is available 24/7 in the United States. If you are outside the U.S., your local hospital or crisis service can help connect you to appropriate care.

Please do stay in touch. I also periodically offer psycho-educational workshops and community-based offerings designed to support reflection, regulation, and well-being, and I look forward to sharing more about these opportunities as they arise.

GENERAL THERAPY FINDING RESOURCES

How to Find a Therapist Who Accepts Your Insurance

  1. Use Psychology Today and search:
    “Psychology Today + [your insurance] + [your area]”.

    • Add “Spanish speaking” or other specialties as needed.

  2. Search your insurance provider’s online directory for in-network therapists.

  3. I do not accept out-of-state clients seeking psychotherapy services in New York.

LGBTQ Health

People who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or queer (LGBTQ) deserve to get the most out of their health care visits. That means working with providers who affirm who they are and incorporate their sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression into care.

Through the NYC Health Map, you can find LGBTQ-knowledgeable providers who can offer you services in:

  • Primary care

  • Sexual health care

  • Gender affirming care

  • HIV testing, treatment, and other services

For more help finding the right medical services and provider, you can also call 311. To see more resources go here: LGBTQ Health - NYC Health

Transgender Support

Support During Gender Transition

Trans people coming out can get a lot of attention – positive and negative.

New York Trans Guide – an up-to-date resource guide

Gender transition takes time. Transition at your own pace with the help of a trans-friendly health care provider and a support group.

To find more resources Transgender Support - NYC Health

I hope this is helpful, wishing you the best. 
Sincerely, 
Dr. Baez

Recommended Reading on Relationships & Emotional Connection

These books approach relationships from different therapeutic perspectives. I encourage you to explore the eBook versions (Kindle, Audible, or library eBooks are all fine) and notice which voice, language, and framework resonates most with you. There is no “right” approach—only what feels most supportive and meaningful for you.
