One approach on educating a mental health practitioner about being gender fluid, from Conversations with a Gender Therapist.

Note: Educating a mental health provider is not for everyone and not for all situations. If you are geographically isolated and need more options for mental health providers that do not require you to do the educating, please know that providers exist who work through online video chatting and phone options. Hopefully soon My Trans Health will be able to help you locate those providers more easily. For now, GLMA provider search may be of use.
