Biography
Reese Minshew (they/them) holds a PhD in clinical psychology from the New School for Social Research and is licensed to practice in California, Illinois, and New York.
"Minshew’s Treating Trauma in Trans People meets a critical need for gender care and trauma care providers: guiding them in trans-affirming trauma-therapy strategies that are grounded in deep understanding of both the impacts of oppression and the healing of therapeutic and community liberatory practices."
Finn Gratton, LMFT (they/them), author of Supporting Transgender Autistic Youth and Adults
"Treating Trauma in Trans People is a valuable guide for clinicians tending to the health and well-being of transgender and gender diverse individuals and communities. The focus of this book is liberation, and it moves us in that direction with a combination of concrete, applicable treatment strategies paired with an examination of the structures that contribute to systemic inequality."
Colt St. Amand, PhD, MD, (he/they), clinical psychologist, family medicine physician, and coeditor of The Gender Affirmative Model
