Register for Gender Identity and Autism: Competent Care

As a therapist, most of the clients I see are neurodivergent and I want to bring my clinical skills and knowledge to you and your practice. A clinician should certainly be trans affirming and affirming of neurodivergent clients, but there's much more than just being affirming when working with autistic clients. How do you allow a client to feel safe and able to be open to you? How do you navigate a family session that is going downhill with an autistic client and their parents? What if a parent tells you they don't believe their autistic child is trans because of their autism? Clinicians will also learn how to work with autistic transgender adults who are also experiencing the exhaustion of masking and navigating social situations, and they could have more disconnection with their body. Because there is a correlation of autism and transgender and gender expansive clients, this CEU is a must take for clinicians that work with transgender clients.
