Specialised Consultation for Gender Identity and Gender Diversity
As part of developing their own identity, children and adolescents may experience uncertainty or discomfort relating to acceptance of their body, their gender role or their gender identity.
We support children and adolescents, together with their families, with questions relating to gender identity and gender diversity.
Clarification and Advice
We provide clarification for gender incongruence (transgender identities), offer information and guidance, and provide individualised advice and support for families. Where required, we can refer patients to our colleagues in specialist medical services for further medical assessments and treatment.
Registration
Registrations are accepted by the administration team of the Polyclinic at the Department of Child and Adolescent.
Registration can be initiated by the person concerned, their parents or legal guardians, or by referring doctors or psychologists.
