On today’s episode of ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen are joined by one of their amazing colleagues and friends, Alexander Stefanini, LPC, owner of Arrive Therapy, an all-LGBTQ+ counseling practice that is trans and queer-focused. The episode begins with Alexander sharing his story of growing up transgender and his experience transitioning. Then, Emmalee, Jen, and Alex discuss navigating gender identity, the work Alex does with his clients as well as their parents, supporting a loved one on their journey to transition, and the radical acceptance that can be helpful along the way. Tune in to find out what Alex is Calling BS on and to gain insight, awareness, and action!Alex’s TikTok: @arrivetherapyArrive Therapy's contact email: [email protected]
