Routledge Trans and Sexuality - Mental Health Research Book

Trans and Sexuality: An existentially-informed enquiry with implications for counselling psychology provides a deep look into the sexuality of individuals who do not identify with the gender assigned at birth. Part of the Explorations in Mental Health series, this book moves beyond traditional theoretical procedures that often split the trans community into distinct groups. It challenges the assumption that group membership dictates sexuality, an idea that has influenced opinions in this under-researched field. By moving away from purely positivistic standpoints, this work offers a new perspective on a highly contested subject. Grounded in cutting-edge qualitative research, the text addresses the gaps left by previous literature. It is a significant resource for those studying the intersection of gender identity and sexuality, offering insights that are relevant to counselling psychology and mental health professionals seeking a deeper understanding of these complex human experiences.
