Course objectives:
- Learn how system theory of familial development can frame your work with a family that is struggling to understand/support a transgender teen
- Identify the value of flexible space holding for parents who present with transphobic viewpoints and methods of building rapport on common ground
- Identify the permanent & non-permanent effects and false fears regarding each step of transitioning
