Summary: | Dr. Julie Tilsen and Dr. David Nylund illustrate the clinical application of queer theory. Queer theory, a set of ideas that challenge notions of fixed identity categories, can be useful in helping clients unpack taken for granted ideas about sex and gender. Dr. Nylund uses a queer theory-informed practice to aid Gwen, a transgender female, appreciate her journey of gender transition; the obstacles she has faced and the skills and courage it has taken to express her non-normative gender identity. Dr. Tilsen works with Tighearnan, a transgender male, to help him navigate his relationship with his mother in a way that does not compromise his gender identity. |
