Abstract
Transsexuals, as a client group, are
increasingly coming to the attention of mental health professionals. This
paper offers a general discussion of gender dysphoria and sex-reassignment,
including an examination of their psychosocial aspects. The role of
psychotherapy in relation to this client group is explored, and reactions of
the therapist to the transsexual are considered.
