The Trans*Beratung Bremen (Trans* Counseling Bremen) is run by the association Trans*Recht eV (Trans* Law). We are a young initiative of trans* activists and their supporters from Bremen and the surrounding area. Trans*Recht eV was founded to support trans* people socially, economically, and legally, and to fight against discrimination against trans* people in law, healthcare, and society.
Since 2014, Trans*Recht eV has been organizing trans* counselling in Bremen, and since 2018 also in the Weser-Ems region of Lower Saxony. We support trans* people with legal cost subsidies for legal proceedings related to trans* gender. Further focal points of our work include the empowerment of trans* people and raising awareness through workshops and lectures. Trans*Recht eV is an active member of the Federal Association Trans* and Transgender Europe.
Consulting topics
- Questions about gender identity
- Uncertainty about whether I am trans* – self-perception
- Clarifying one's own wishes and goals
- Coming Out
- Topics related to relationships (also for partners)
- Topics related to the social environment, family, etc.
- Work, school, training, studies
- Discrimination and transphobia, bullying
- Questions about the transition (e.g., body modifications or changes of name and legal gender)
- Legal issues, e.g. in disputes with health insurance companies
- Questions relating to trans* gender and migration/refugeeism, residence
- Search for experts, e.g. doctors, psychotherapists, lawyers

In addition to the topic of trans* issues, our counseling also addresses other life topics, such as relationships, career, and mental health. We offer a safe space that is secure from externally imposed definitions of body and identity.
