Counselling professionals are increasingly seeking training for
working with gender variant clients. Madison-Amy Webb invites them
to consider a simple truth: everyone has a gender identity, whether
or not they've given it much thought. By reflecting on their own
gender identity through the exercises provided, counsellors can
relate to clients in new and productive ways, gaining a more
nuanced understanding of the issues faced by their clients and of
their own identity. Incisive yet accessible, this unique guide
shines a light on how the popular conception of gender identity
came into being by looking at the social and historical influences
at play. This context is then brought to life with a rich variety
of case studies and excerpts from the author's own diary.
Reflective exercises such as 'The Dressing Up Box' and 'Personal
Meaning' will help readers develop a deeper understanding of their
own gender identity, while clinical techniques offer new ways to
connect with gender variant clients effectively. Essential reading
for any counselling professional working with gender variant
clients.
