I cannot fathom the stuckness, fury, franticness, incredulousness with which thousands of parents are living. The sense of helplessness hanging around every doorway. Questioning your sanity quotient as the medical/health, mass media, legal, political/governmental, & educational establishments in our country gaslight you to a crisp. I am a gender exploratory/therapy as 1st intervention psychotherapist practicing in the Baltimore MD area in the United States. I am welcoming parents of gender identity questioning youth (under 25 years of age) to my practice. Supporting your children is not synonymous with affirming them. As we are aware, the misuse/abuse of language has conflated the derision we’ve been experiencing over the last decade. That’s for another day. If you know any parents in Maryland who may benefit from connecting with me, please send them to GETA (Gender Exploratory Therapy Association) or Psychology Today. There are therapists who continue to work from a biology/human development framework, and who provide holistic/integrated therapy. We’re here. I’m exhausted from hiding.
