Working with Transgender Clients with Lynda Quick

Gender reassignment involves a fundamental lifestyle change. While many clients seeking gender reassignment have a clear understanding of when they first felt uncomfortable in their birth gender, and have a clear expectation what life will be like for them after gender reassignment surgery (GRS) the gender reassignment process might uncover challenges they might never have thought of.

Gender reassignment has been described as a selfish experience, the client’s husband/wife/partner; family and friends will be impacted by the clients gender change. How much has the client considered this? There will also be people in their social and working life who will in some way or another be involved in their gender reassignment journey.

The clients hope is that gender reassignment will improve the quality of their life, but for some they have more to lose than they hope to gain.
