"Many parents experience fear, shame, and loss upon learning that their child is same-sex oriented or gender non-conforming. Therapies to help parents become more accepting and foster meaningful relationships with their LGBTQ children are critical. Ongoing parental criticism, invalidation, and rejection of one's sexual or gender identity can take a profound psychological toll and lead to internalized homophobia, expectations for future gay-related rejection by others, depression, and other negative impacts. In contrast, parental acceptance is associated with lower rates of suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts, higher self-esteem, higher levels of perceived social support, lower levels of psychological symptoms, and better general health. While most parents become more accepting, or at least more tolerant, over time, others remain partially or fully rejecting even years after learning of their child's identity. Attachment-based family therapy for sexual and gender minority young adults (ABFT-SGM) helps reduce parental rejection, facilitate parental acceptance, and ultimately promote safer, closer, and more mutually respectful relationships between LGBTQ young adults and their parents. This informative book combines step-by-step guidance, real-life examples, and an empirically based approach to help therapists conduct transformative attachment experiences to keep these families connected"-- "This book presents the first empirically supported family-based approach for working with LGBTQ young adults and their nonaccepting parents to help therapists promote parental acceptance and create closer, more meaningful relationships"--

This book aids clinicians in supporting and caring for transgender and gender-diverse children and adolescents – youth who are born into an incongruent body. A recent study using data from 19 states reported that 1.8% of American youth identified as transgender. Many people who are transgender will experience gender dysphoria, the intense emotional distress that is caused by a discrepancy between a person's gender identity and their sex assigned at birth. In this compact volume, the authors discuss the variety of domains involved in addressing gender dysmorphia: social, psychological, medical, and legislative/advocacy. They provide clear and concise information on the types and timing of gender-affirming medications and surgical interventions and offer useful suggestions for making interactions in the clinic and the clinical space inclusive for transgender and gender-diverse youth. Among the topics covered include: identity development and gender nonconformity in early childhood and puberty the importance of access to mental health professionals with expertise in gender nonconformity the responsible use of developmentally appropriate gender-affirming medications and surgical interventions related clinical issues such as nutrition counselling for youth receiving gender-affirming treatments creating a safe and inclusive healthcare environment for transgender and gender-diverse youth advocating for transgender and gender-diverse patients by working with local and national policy makers Providing Affirming Care to Transgender and Gender-Diverse Youth is essential reading for pediatric healthcare professionals including physicians in pediatrics and family medicine, plastic surgeons, nurses, dietitians, psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and other practitioners. Students in these fields as well as policy makers also would find this a useful resource.

Dans le domaine de la gynécologie obstétrique, et plus globalement de la santé sexuelle, les professionnel(le)s sont amené(e)s de plus en plus à prendre en charge des femmes lesbiennes, des hommes et femmes transgenres et des hommes gays. Les médecins et les sages-femmes sont souvent désarmés face à ces populations et ne possèdent pas les connaissances nécessaires pour donner le meilleur accueil et les soins les mieux adaptés aux patient(e)s. Cet ouvrage réunit des spécialistes expérimentés concernant la santé sexuelle et reproductive des personnes LGBT. Il aborde, entre autres, l'accueil d'une personne LGBT en consultation, le suivi gynécologique, le dépistage et la prévention des infections sexuellement transmissibles, le bien-être sexuel, la contraception et l'avortement, la prise en charge endocrinologique et chirurgicale d'une personne trans, le désir d'enfant, le suivi d'une grossesse. Il a pour objectif de réunir toutes les connaissances nécessaires pour une bonne prise en charge de ces patient(e)s et apporte, par son côté pluridisciplinaire (médecine, psychologie, sexologie, sociologie et démographie), un éclairage sur la diversité et les mobilités de genre et de sexualité. Cet ouvrage s'adresse à tous les professionnel(le)s de santé qui rencontrent ces populations et, en particulier, aux gynécologues médicaux et gynécologues-obstétriciens, ainsi qu'aux endocrinologues, médecins généralistes et sages-femmes, voire aux personnes concernées

Gender diversity is now recognised as simply part of human diversity, rather than being pathological. This shift calls for a need for mental health professionals to adapt their practice when working with trans and non-binary people. Written by two clinicians with significant experience in this field, this book provides practical, everyday advice on what to do when seeing gender-diverse people in both inpatient and outpatient settings. It avoids focusing on academic theory or being overly political and, instead, offers straightforward, useful guidance on common issues clinicians may face, such as which ward to accommodate someone on or which name to use when. Topics include common drug interactions, differential diagnoses, complex case formulation, autistic spectrum conditions, the spectrum of sexualities, surgeries, legal and religious matters, forensic assessment, psychotherapy and mental health diagnoses. Fully relevant to contemporary practice, this is a much-needed guide for busy clinicians seeking immediate, practical and authoritative answers.
