Your Therapist Needs Therapy 97 - AAMFT’s Guidelines for Ethical Gender-Affirming Care
Manage episode 482774205 series 3474666
Jeremy drops in this week looking at the recent guidelines released by the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapist (AAMFT) for working with Trans, Non-Binary, and/or Gender Expansive (TNBGE) clients. It’s a really good set of guidelines that were released in a time of political strife, and it does a good job of not giving into the pressure that exists in this climate. Jeremy hits some highlights, and examines some of the recommendations for providers, and how that benefits clients and the profession as a whole.
To access the document, follow this link for a pdf (it is free, but you do need to “checkout” with it still). Also, worth reading the AAMFT position statement on gender-affirming care, as that provides the wider context that these guidelines exist under.
-----
Podcasts about therapy do not replace actual therapy, and listening to a podcast about therapy does not signify a therapeutic relationship.
If you or someone you know is in crisis please call or text the nationwide crisis line at 988, or text HELLO to 741741. The Trevor Project has a crisis line for LGBTQ+ young people that can be reached by texting 678678.
