The challenges you may experience have historically been caused by a lack of specialized medical or behavioral health training you received in preparation for your career and the care you will be providing for Transgender and Gender Diverse patients.   <br /><br />This understanding was underscored and reinforced by a 2011 study, reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association, the medical schools, on average, only provide Five (5) hours of academic or clinical instruction on LGBTQ+ healthcare requirements.  In the absence of specialized training; time is required to acquire first-hand real-world knowledge and experience with the diverse challenges, needs and experiences these individuals present and what they are confronted with as they live their lives in their <b><i>Self-Attributed Non-Conforming Gender</i></b> roles.  <br /><b><i></i></b><br /><b><i>Transgender, Gender Diverse, Gender Non-Conforming, Gender Incongruent & Non-Binary </i></b>individuals, their families, friends, schools, employers and social-networks will also benefit from the content of these Podcasts in-spite of the fact that the detailed medical and psychological content of these programs focuses on the continuing educational needs and requirements of the medical or behavioral healthcare professional.  Knowledge is essential to counteract the negative publicity and the political hyperbole disseminated by individuals with no understanding of the history and underlying biological factors influencing gender non-conformity.  <br /><b><i></i></b><br /><b><i>Dr. Sorrentino is a Member of:</i></b> <br /><b><i>WPATH - World Professional Association for Transgender Health</i></b><br /><b><i>GLMA – Gay Lesbian Medical Association</i></b><br /><b><i>Outcare – LGBTQ+ Healthcare</i></b><br /><b><i>Molly Tommy</i></b>  <br /><b></b><br /><b>Book: </b><br /><b>Transgender Families</b><br /><i>Helping Parents & Families Understanding Gender Diversity & Being Transgender</i><br /><i>Authored by:  Dr. Diana Sorrentino</i>  <br /><b></b><br /><b>Available on Amazon, Barnes & Nobel, and Your Local Bookstore</b><b></b> <b><a href="http://www.paradoxesofgender.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.paradoxesofgender.com</a>/books</b>  <br /><b>Website:</b>               <a href="http://www.paradoxesofgender.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><b>www.paradoxesofgender.com</b></a><b></b>  <br /><b>Podcasts:</b>             <a href="http://www.paradoxesofgender.com/podcasts" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><b>www.paradoxesofgender.com/podcasts</b></a><b></b>  <br /><b>E-Mail Address:</b>  <b>paradoxesofgender@earthlink.net</b><b></b> <b> </b><br /><b></b><br /><b>Copyright 2025 – All Rights Reserved</b><br /><b>Paradoxes of Gender Podcasts are a Professional Production of Dr. Diana Sorrentino, Ph.D.</b> <b> </b>
