How to get a bit more in touch with your own gender identity and work more effectively with gender diverse people

Activity: Talk or presentation typesOral presentation

23/01/2019

Building on last year’s ‘Working therapeutically with gender diversity’ this two hour workshop, facilitated by a trans identified trainee clinical psychologist, aims to build understanding of how gender diversity challenges notions of our own gender identity – and how coming to a greater understanding of ourselves helps us to better understand our gender diverse clients. The workshop begins with an experiential journey intended to break down some of the barriers between cisgender and transgender. This is followed by a mixture of teaching and exercises designed to build understanding of the challenges faced by gender diverse people, and how Psychologists can work with them in the therapeutic alliance and beyond to make their workplaces more inclusive for trans clients and staff.
