Transgender Mental Health
American Psychiatric Association Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-61537-113-6 (ISBN)
Transgender Mental Health fills this gap. Forgoing clinical jargon in favor of accessible, straightforward language, this guide is designed to educate clinicians on how to address the basic needs of the TGNC community, and thus increase access to mental health care for TGNC individuals, which has been sorely lacking to this point.
Four sections address topics such as the history of the TGNC experience, mental health factors particular to the TGNC community, physical health—including hormones—of TGNC individuals, and gender-affirming surgical procedures, as well as nonsurgical interventions. Summarizing key points and review questions are included at the end of each chapter.
Relevant for a range of mental health professionals, Transgender Mental Health is a simple yet thorough primer on the complex topic of gender diversity.
Eric Yarbrough, M.D., is currently medical Director of the Gay Men's Health Crisis (GMHC) in New York City. In the APA, Dr. Yarbrough also is vice-chair of the Council on Minority Mental Health and Health Disparities.
