Hi Azkaban- I agree that money for therapy is a reality and if your parents say they can do it, then you can do it. But if they say it is too much money and too much of a strain, then maybe there is someone in the counseling dept you can talk to about a female T who works with your particular issues. Maybe you can have a session with someone or talk to someone there about what you might want in a therapist.
Im crossing my fingers for you, too
