57. Binary Bullsh*t

Have you ever been asked to change your gender identity at work? Lou shares what happens when they're asked by their employer to deny their personhood and values to make a few clients feel more comfortable. We explore the systems of oppression that made this situation possible, the lack of communication and support they experienced, and all the bullshit that made us want to riot with Lou! We are so honored that Lou shared their story with us, and we are proud to highlight this story during Pride Month. We on Am I a Bad Therapist? stand with the LGBTQIA+ community and are committed to making this field a safe place for all therapists and clients. Did something in the show resonate with you?
