Note sull'episodio

Episode summary: In the final episode of The Inked Therapist's nervous system arc, Del Knight gets specific about what trans-affirming therapy actually means — not the sticker in the window, but the real thing. Five concrete clinical practices, a deep dive into somatic work with trans clients, a direct address to trans and nonbinary listeners about what they're allowed to expect, and an honest note to clinicians about what this work actually requires.

Topics covered: Willing vs. affirming · Minority stress · Gender euphoria · Anti-gatekeeping · WPATH-informed care · Somatic work with trans clients · Political neutrality in therapy · Trans flourishing
