Sommario/riassunto

This book, authored by Marie L. Miville, Tatiana Vera, and Nic



Bensmiller, explores the intersection of gender and mental health, focusing on counseling and therapeutic practices. It addresses the impact of gender on psychological well-being, considering recent societal movements like MeToo and policy changes affecting transgender and nonconforming individuals. The authors aim to provide practitioners and students in mental health fields with insights into gender-related issues, emphasizing diverse gender identities, including TGNC individuals. The text includes case studies and discussion questions to apply theoretical concepts in practical scenarios. Key themes include gender roles, privilege, prejudice, and therapeutic frameworks for addressing gender in counseling. The book advocates for an inclusive approach to understanding gender's socio-political implications and its intersections with race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and sexual orientation.
