Guidance for parents of transgender children

Guidance for parents of transgender children

I remember so well what it was like!

How do I work?

The guidance I provide takes place entirely online, but you can indicate yourself whether you want to use Microsoft Teams or Zoom.

The online conversations last 1.5 hours and are not recorded. You decide how many conversations you want and when they take place. It is your path and therefore also your pace. Of course everything is completely confidential.
