For professionals working therapeutically with clients in the fields of eating disorders and transgender health psychology, this essential guide addresses the clinical challenges a therapist may encounter in these areas and offers applicable advice through real life case studies.
This accessible guide for clinicians and clinical students working in the fields of eating disorders and transgender health psychology offers useful tips, constructive case studies and reflective questions that enable readers to feel better equipped in supporting their clients' needs.

The book addresses the clinical challenges a therapist may encounter, and provides advice on the key issues involved in therapeutic work with transgender, non-binary and gender-expansive clients, including trauma, minority stress, coming out, family support, appearance and body changes.
