This pilot study aimed to assess the feasibility and relative effectiveness of two psychotherapy interventions for transgender clients. Results showed improvement in both interventions based on general outcome measures, with a trend of improvement in targeted outcome measures.
Minority stress has been determined to contribute to some mental health concerns for transgender, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming individuals, yet little is known regarding interventions to decrease the effects of minority stress. The purpose of this pilot study was to assess the feasibility and relative effectiveness of two interventions developed for work with transgender clients. Transgender individuals (N = 20) were recruited to participate in a randomized controlled trial comparing two psychotherapy interventions for transgender adults seeking psychotherapy for a variety of concerns: (a) transgender affirmative psychotherapy (TA) and (b) Building Awareness of Minority Stressors + Transgender Affirmative psychotherapy. Gender-related stress and resilience were assessed before, immediately after, and 6 months following the intervention; psychological distress and working alliance were assessed at these three time points as well as weekly during the intervention. Feasibility and acceptability of the study and psychotherapy interventions were supported. Exploratory analyses indicate improvement in both groups based on general outcome measures; targeted outcome measures indicate a trend of improvement for internalized stigma and nonaffirmation experiences. Results from this study support further evaluation of both treatment arms in a larger randomized controlled trial.
