The authors, who are experts in the field, outline the key qualities of affirming mental health services and explore strategies for improving inclusivity and evidence-based care with trans clients. dickey and Puckett also provide insight into current topics, such as working with youth, the harmful and ill-advised approach known as rapid onset gender dysphoria, and whether and how autism might be a co-occurring diagnostic concern. Practitioners will find the printable resources provided invaluable for their clinical practice, including sample letters of support for trans clients who are seeking gender affirming medical care.
