Given the tremendous rise in people expressing a variety of gender identities, neuropsychologists need to understand how to work effectively and affirmatively with this population, including understanding the intersection with autism spectrum disorder.
In this webinar, Dr. Orlich will present Best Practices for evaluating gender-diverse individuals, particularly:
•Delineating the role of neuropsychologists and psychologists in gender-affirming care
•Choosing appropriate assessment instruments
•Understanding the possible effects of medical treatments, such as hormone therapies, on evaluation results
