Strong Tower Mental Health Podcast 172. Gender Distress – A Practical Response with Pamela Garfield-Jaeger, LCSW, MS
In this opinionated and divided world, it can be hard to know how to response to the transgender issues in a Godly and honoring way. How do we continue to love those and walk in the healthy choice? Known as “The Truthful Therapist”, Pamela is a licensed social worker who has experience on both sides of opinions with transgender issues. She calls the current transgender craze we are in as the “modern day lobotomy”. She sees the pain that families experience as well as the doctors and therapists involved. She has spent a lot of time with those who have painfully de-transitioned and are getting little help and public attention. Her book, “A Practical Response to Gender to Distress”, is a very easy and helpful tool to be able to confidently walk through the gender issues with kindness, love and truth. As a Jewish woman herself, she knows what it is like to be discriminated against but she honors those with different faith. She walks through this difficult topic with humor, confidence and most importantly, love.
