In this episode, experts in transgender health from Aotearoa/New Zealand, Victoria and Western Australia come together to discuss why they love working with transgender youth, what this entails, and the regional differences across the two countries. Acknowledging the lack of clinical education many psychiatrists (and doctors in general) will have received about transgender health, the podcast opens with a brief summary of essential knowledge before going on to discuss a wide range of topics. These include: how gender identity is formed, puberty blockers, and people who choose to stop gender-affirming treatments. Dr Zoe Kristensen (she/her/ia) is a child and adolescent psychiatrist working at a busy CAMHS service in Auckland. She has lived experience of gender diversity, and over the last decade has held various roles as transgender healthcare provider, medical educator, and policy advisor. Whilst contributions made during this podcast are not necessarily the positions held by these organisations, these are invariably informed by work as a Honorary Clinical Lecturer at the University of Auckland, a faculty member for the WPATH GEI, an advisor for Manatū Hauora, and with PATHA. Dr Tram Nguyen (she/her) is a Consultant Psychiatrist and Co-Lead at the Royal Children’s Hospital Gender Service. She is passionate about equity in healthcare and is a strong advocate for marginalised people. In her other roles, she is the Clinical Clinical Lead at the Cabrini Asylum Seeker and Refugee Health Hub and a long-standing Consultant with the Women’s Alcohol and Drug Service, The Royal Women’s Hospital Melbourne. Dr Julie Moore (she/her)  [MBBS (Hons), FRANZCP, Cert Child Adol Psychiatry] is a graduate of the University of Western Australia, and trained in the Western Australian training program of the RANZCP, after previous experience in hospital medicine, anaesthesia and occupational health. She is a member of the Australian Professional Association for Transgender Health and the World Professional Association for Transgender Health, and contributed to the development of the Australian Standards of Care and Treatment Guidelines for Trans and Gender Diverse Children and Adolescents (Telfer M and colleagues, 2018).
