This workshop offers a clinically-grounded, identity-affirming framework for treating eating disorders in transgender clients, with particular attention to transmasculine individuals and transgender people of color. Attendees will explore the diagnostic criteria for gender dysphoria and consider how intersecting identities shape the lived experience of body image distress and disordered eating. We will examine current best practices in gender-affirming eating disorder care, drawing from recent research and emerging therapeutic models. Additionally, participants will engage with excerpts from interviews conducted with transgender providers, highlighting real-world applications of inclusive and ethical treatment. Through case-informed reflection and theoretical dialogue, this session will equip clinicians with deeper insight and actionable tools to support transgender clients in ways that affirm identity, reduce harm, and foster healing.
