Less than 30% of psychologists report familiarity with transgender and gender nonconforming clients' needs. The clients, in turn, report a lack of support in their gender journeys. There is clearly a gap in knowledge, skill, and competence in this area. This clinical guide fills that gap by providing mental health practitioners with an affirmative approach that emphasises a collaborative partnership guided by client-driven goals.
