Explore an ecological strength-based framework for the treatment of gender-variant clients
This comprehensive book provides you with a clinical and theoretical overview of the issues facing transgendered/transsexual people and their families. Transgender Emergence: Therapeutic Guidelines for Working with Gender-Variant People and Their Families views assessment and treatment through a nonpathologizing lens that honors human diversity and acknowledges the role of oppression in the developmental process of gender identity formation.
Specific sections of Transgender Emergence: Therapeutic Guidelines for Working with Gender-Variant People and Their Families address the needs of gender-variant people as well as transgender children and youth. The issues facing gender-variant populations who have not been the focus of clinical care, such as intersexed people, female-to-male transgendered people, and those who identify as bigendered, are also addressed.
The book examines: - the six stages of transgender emergence - coming out transgendered as a normative process of gender identity development - thinking "outside the box" in the deconstruction of sex and gender - the difference between sexual orientation and gender identity, as well as the convergence, overlap, and integration of these parts of the self - the power of personal narrative in gender identity development - etiology and typographies of transgenderism - treatment models that emerge from various clinical perspectives - alternative treatment modalities based on gender variance as a normative lifecycle developmental process Complete with fascinating case studies, a critique of diagnostic processes, treatment recommendations, and a helpful glossary of relevant terms, this book is an essential reference for anyone who works with gender-variant people. Handy tables and figures make the information easier to access and understand.
