I was pleasantly surprised with the balance of tried and true activities and newer activities that could offer a safe entry point for young people very early in their gender journey. A great balance of playful and serious. I'd recommend this as an excellent new tool for therapists and counselors, as well as a self-guided resource for a young person who feels ready to explore identity on their own.\" \n\u003cstrong\u003e--Nicole Avallone, LCSW, Psychotherapist and LGBT Cultural Competency Trainer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReview Quotes\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"As a therapist who works with adolescents and adults who identify as LGBTQ or are exploring gender, I find this book to be incredibly helpful, not just as a resource but also as a jumping point to facilitate deeper conversations. Gender exploration can be daunting, and this book helps to break down identity in different ways. It provides relatable vignettes for those who may feel alone or misunderstood in their process and experience. It also uses language that youth understand, which is a big plus!\" \n\u003cstrong\u003e--Ashley Leeds, LCSW\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher Marketing\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupportive exercises and advice for teens exploring gender identity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiscover more about who you are and who you might want to become.
