This research is designed to examine the relationship between internalized transphobia of transgender people, resilience strategies and perception of their own body (body esteem). Regression analysis was used to study the association among these variables based on data collected from 100 respondents from Peshawar city (Pakistan) who identified themselves as transgenders. The scales for self-reported internalized transphobia, body esteem and resilience strategies were utilized as measures in this study. According to the findings, there is a strong negative relationship between internalized transphobia and resilience strategies. On the other hand, it was found that body esteem increases with increase in coping skills (resilience) among transgenders. These results highlight how resilience can help against internalized transphobia by fostering positive psychosexual outcomes such as body esteem
