Perspectives on Transgender
Caroline Gibbs, Founder and Director of the Transgender Institute in Kansas City will speak on the basics of transgender theory and care followed by a question and answer session with transsexual individuals. Caroline will discuss:
"Working with this clientele requires specialization, comprising in part, an awareness of the impact of stress on gender dysphoria and the non-pathologizing of stress-related symptoms, and additionally, a particular knowledge of grief and bereavement as they manifest during the transgender client’s and his or her family’s journey."
