Therapist for teen thinks she's trans?

[Anonymous]

This is becoming a trend for teens, especially teen girls, who feel like they don't belong. Unfortunately, there have been a bunch of gender clinics springing up in recent years to take advantage of this. Stay away from them.

Agree with reading sites like 4thwavenow.com. It's mostly written by parents who have gone through this, as well as therapists who are seeing trends in the teen population.

My sister is a therapist in NOVA. She gets calls from parents looking for help for their trans teen all the time. But because this has turned into such a political issue, she has to be really careful with how she responds.

My daughter in college also tells me about so many kids she knows who are transitioning. Apparently it is becoming more common in college as well.
