Highlights from the American Psychological Association's

Guidelines for Psychological Practice with Transgender and Gender Nonconforming People

Psychologists understand that gender is a nonbinary construct that allows for a range of gender identities and that a person's gender identity may not align with sex assigned at birth.
Psychologists understand that gender identity and sexual orientation are distinct but interrelated constructs.
Psychologist seek to understand how gender identity intersects with the cultural identities of transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) people.​
Psychologists recognize how stigma, prejudice, discrimination, and violence affect the health and well-being of TGNC people.
Psychologists strive to recognize the influence of institutional barriers on the lives of TGNC and to assist in developing TGNC-affirmative environments.
Psychologists understand the need to promote social change that reduces the negative effects of stigma on the health and well-being of TGNC people.​​
Psychologists strive to understand how mental health concerns may or may not be related to a TGNC person's gender identity and the psychological effects of minority stress.
Psychologists recognize that TGCN people are more likely to experience positive life outcomes when they receive social support or trans-affirmative care.​​
