Some kids may resist healing their gender dysphoria because they cling to it as proof of their transgender identity. They see their dysphoria as essential to their trans identity, and seem to resist letting go of it because it provides them a sense of authenticity and belonging. They can often become fixated on the promise of transformation through social and medical transition, believing it’s the key to happiness, rejecting any other alternatives.

In this bonus episode for premium subscribers, Sasha and Stella explore reflections and strategies for working with and parenting kids with these ideas and feelings about their gender dysphoria.
