Mental health, coping, and resilience among transgender and gender diverse people during the 2020 U.S. presidential election
Differences in Health Care Access, Utilization, and Experiences Among LGBTQ+ Subgroups in the Southern United States
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other sexual and gender minority (LGBTQ+) individuals experience health inequities and barriers to accessing appropriate, affirming care. Little is known about differing health care experiences within the LGBTQ+ population, particularly among individuals living in underserved areas. This study explored health care experiences and utilization among LGBTQ+ subgroups: lesbian and gay cisgender individu…
Test–retest reliability and sensitivity of a brief clinical monitoring measure for transgender and gender diverse adults
The current study aimed to examine the test–retest reliability and sensitivity of the Trans Collaborations Clinical Check-In (TC3) in a 3-month period with four assessment points at baseline, 1, 2, and 3 months to examine its utility as a clinical progress monitoring measure. This study builds on the initial validation study conducted by Holt et al. (2019). The sample of 32 transgender and gender diverse (TGD) participants were chosen who met scr…
Mental health and marginalization stress in transgender and gender diverse adults
We demonstrate that marginalization stress processes appear to account for some of the differences between TGD individuals living in urban, rural, and urban cluster areas. The differences between areas largely persist, however, after controlling for marginalization stress, especially when comparing urban with urban cluster areas
Stigma, Tolerance, and Acceptance in the Lives of Sexual and Gender Minority Nebraskans
Experiences of stigma and acceptance profoundly affect the lives of sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals and are often dependent on context, such as geographic location. Through interviews with twenty sexual and gender minority individuals living in Nebraska, this study aimed to explore participants’ experiences of rejection and acceptance in different spheres to better understand how stigma operates. Thematic analysis revealed primary th…
Educational preparedness to care for transgender and gender diverse adults
Ensuring that mental health professionals are appropriately trained to provide affirming and sensitive care to transgender and gender diverse (TGD) adults is one mechanism that may reduce the marginalization sometimes experienced by TGD adults in mental health contexts. In this study, mental health professionals (n = 142) completed an online survey documenting the sources and types of training received to provide TGD-sensitive care; and, shared a…
Psychometric Evaluation of the Transgender Congruence Scale
Tele-mental health with marginalized communities in rural locales
The provision of mental health care via technology has been used successfully for several years with rural communities The COVID-19 pandemic, however, led to a substantial surge in usage of tele-mental health as therapists sought to maintain continuity of care for their clients when in-person sessions became unsafe and the need for services increased Based on our experience with tele-mental health, especially synchronous digital video conferencin…
Specialists in name or practice? The inclusion of transgender and gender diverse identities in online materials of gender specialists
Recommendations for health care providers working with transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals emphasize affirming clients' identities, such as using correct pronouns and name, however it is unknown how often gender specialists adhere to such recommendations. Websites and intake forms of gender specialists were coded for use of affirming language, asking for pronouns and chosen name, and mention of TGD specialties and resources. Most web…
The provider perspective on behavioral health care for transgender and gender nonconforming individuals in the Central Great Plains
Transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) individuals interact with mental health care systems at high rates and experience substantial barriers to care. Rural TGNC individuals face additional disparities in accessing appropriate mental health services. Little research has focused on the mental health care providers who work with TGNC individuals in underserved areas. The current study sought to describe the mental health care services delivere…
Unmet Expectations in Health Care Settings
Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals face a long-term, multifaceted process if they choose to begin a gender affirmation journey. Decisions to go on hormone therapy and/or have a surgical procedure necessitate the TGD individual to set up an appointment with a health care provider. However, when TGD patients interact with health care practitioners, problems can arise. This article documents and categorizes the types of unmet expectati…
The Rise of Transgender and Gender Diverse Representation in the Media
In recent years, the transgender and gender diverse (TGD) population has gained a stronger voice in the media. Although these voices are being heard, there are limits on the types of TGD representation displayed in media. The current study interviewed 27 TGD individuals. These interviews exposed how participants view the rise of TGD media representation. The main themes that emerged were TGD awareness and TGD identity discovery and role modeling.…
First impressions online
Barriers to affirmative healthcare for TGNC people within patient and provider interactions have been identified in previous research and these data show TGNC individuals may face enacted stigma even in their search for a provider, particularly those TGNC people living in States without legal protections
Renaming Me
Our identity is our name connected with a specific face and body. Yet, our name, a critical aspect of the “names-body-identity” nexus is rarely self-selected. The naming of a newborn is often the purview of family and the name selected is often linked to the sex assigned to the child. Assigned sex, however, may differ from gender identity. Renaming, the process of selecting and using a new name, can be instrumental in expressing an authentic gend…
A review of contemporary assessment tools for use with transgender and gender nonconforming adults
There is increasing recognition of the need for culturally sensitive services for individuals who identify as transgender or gender non-conforming (TGNC), and only recently have empirical studies appeared in the literature that inform best practices for TGNC people. Competent, culturally appropriate clinical services and research depend upon methodologically sound assessment of key constructs, but it is unclear whether appropriate self-report or …
Culturally competent evidence-based behavioral health services for the transgender community
The presence of individuals who identify as transgender has emerged into public awareness in the United States in recent years. Celebrities who publicly transition have expanded the national conversation about gender variation beyond gender and women's studies classrooms and certain specialty health and mental health services. This increased public visibility has been accompanied by increased visibility in the mental health literature, including …
