In a previous podcast conversation, we discussed gender-affirming care primarily through the lens of writing support letters for gender-affirming surgeries. Today, we’re coming at it from more of a neuropsychological perspective. I’m fortunate to have Dr. Emily Trittschuh and Dr. Jae Purnell here to talk through the ins and outs of gender-diverse neuropsychological assessment. We cover topics such as…









* What the literature really says about brain-based sex differences







* The role of test norms in gender-affirming assessment







* Language considerations in gender-affirming assessment







* Gender-affirming interview and report-writing skills









Cool Things Mentioned









* The Testing Psychologist mastermind groups and business consulting







* The gender unicorn graphic







* WPATH







* APA guidelines on working with trans people







* Trans Bodies, Trans Selves book







* The Queer Neuropsychological Society
