Biological variations in sex development, also known as intersex,
are greatly misunderstood by the wider public. This unique book
discusses psychological practice in healthcare for people and
families impacted by a range of 'intersex' variations. It
highlights the dilemmas facing individuals and their loved ones in
the social context and discusses the physical and psychological
complexities of irrevocable medical interventions to approximate
social norms for bodily appearance and function. It exposes the
contradictions in medical management and suggests valuable
theoretical and practice tools for psychosocial care providers to
navigate them. Uniquely featuring theory and research informed
practice vignettes, the book explores interpersonal work on the
most salient psychosocial themes, ranging from grief work with
impacted caretakers to sex therapy with impacted adults. An
indispensable resource for working ethically, pragmatically and
creatively for a variety of healthcare specialists and those
affected by variations in sex development and their families and
communities.
