E.80 - Transitioning and Mental Health with Arin Brutlag

TW: Conversion Therapy Practices (20:07 - 22:39)

In this episode, we get to hear about Arin's experience with questioning their gender, going back as far as when they were five years old and realized that they were not quite fitting in like everyone else.

Their experience with bullying inspired them to work with kids who are questioning their gender, helping kids navigate this oft-confusing path.

But it's not just kids who need help navigating, their parents often do, too!

Arin and I get to dive into what the internet has done to help the trans, non-binary, questioning community and how gender non-conforming kids are getting along in her therapy practice.

We get into some of the struggles someone might face when coming out, and what some reactions from parents might be.

Here's where we hit the trigger warning.

We talk about some of the torture that people face when going through conversion therapy. Please skip from 20:07 to 22:39 if you are sensitive to this topic.

We finish it up with some tips for parents of someone who is coming out, and get a chance to answer a listener question!

I had so much fun with Arin and I know you will, too! Learn more about Arin at www.renewedmentalhealth.com and follow them @renewedmentalhealth !
