I have been racking my brain trying to find a therapist who is gender dysphoria neutral- critical would be best, but I cant even find a neutral therapist willing to take on anything that has any inclination of GD and they tell me they can’t take on our family.
I have had extensive conversations with therapists, who deal with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues and I explain how unfair it is of them to not address these issues with my DD. I made it clear to those who were “hands off” how much of a detriment it is to shy away from working on those issues. I got the impression that they were very fearful of being accused of conducting conversion therapy. I am so confused. What happened to the Hippocratic Oath these medical professionals took?
Then I come across this in my search. I am so lost and just don’t know what to do anymore. I feel like we just need to close ranks and weather this storm under some major protection spells.
