Special Series - National Transgender Health Summit - Ep. 01 - Dr. Diane Ehrensaft

Our guest this week is Dr. Diane Ehrensaft. Dr. Ehrensaft is director of mental health, and a founding member of the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Child and Adolescent Gender Center Clinic. She is a developmental and clinical psychologist in the San Francisco Bay Area. We’re kidding. Sort of. Aaron T recently attended the Annual Trans Health Summit in San Francisco, where he met up with two similarly concerned local Bay Area clinicians - one a pediatrician and the other a clinical psychologist - the latter of whom managed to covertly record every session of the conference she attended. What you are about to hear is that audio in full, along with commentary by the Aarons and the aforementioned clinicians who will remain anonymous for professional reasons.  This is the first in a multipart series, where we will bring you into the room of the recent Annual Trans Health Summit. The audio will kick off with a recording and will be frequently paused for commentary from the four of us. Subsequent episodes in this series will have the same format.  We now give you Dr. Ehrensaft.
