Please join us for another valuable workshop!
How to Be Supportive of Clients Who Are Transgender
presented by
Heather Blessing, LMFT
Participants will learn how to make their practice more supportive to clients who are transgender, questioning their gender, non-binary, or intersexed. This will be an interactive workshop where participants can ask questions about transgender issues while learning about the trans* culture, from trans* friendly language and forms to understanding informed consent.
Note: trans* is a way to designate all types of trans, such as transwoman, transman, transgender, transsexual, transfeminine, etc.
Heather Blessing LMFT has been working with and been an advocate for the LBGTQ community for more than 20 years. In 2006, she met and eventually married her husband, who is transgender. When she became licensed in 2015, working with transgender children became her specialty. She provides trainings and workshops to help others understand what transgender means and how to be supportive.
