Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all appointments are online or on the phone.

I work with other psychotherapists who are seeking consultation about working with transgender or nonbinary clients, especially from a relational psychoanalytic or psychodynamic lens.

I’m also recruiting people to join my consultation group:

TRANSference

Ongoing case consultation group for psychodynamic/psychoanalytic therapists working with transgender and nonbinary adults.

  • Tuesdays 10:00-11:30 am Pacific on Zoom
  • Fee: $340 monthly (regardless of the number of Tuesdays in the month) 
  • Limited to 5 Clinicians
  • Minimum Commitment of 3 months
  • Facilitators: Cadyn Cathers, PsyD
  • Starting in April 4, 2023

This weekly consultation group will focus on deepening the work between a therapist and a transgender/gender nonbinary (TGNB) adult client. Each meeting is an interactive exploration about a member’s work with a TGNB client. The group is structured to draw the therapist/client dyad into the group through parallel process, emotional enactments, and transference/countertransference dynamics with a special emphasis on gender. This group is guided to be playful, emotionally intimate, interactive, and spontaneous. We hope to create a felt sense of the developmental, psychodynamic, and relational dynamics of psychotherapy with transgender and nonbinary clients. Issues of self-disclosure, projections of the therapist’s internalized shame, loss of clinical objectivity, and self-care will be addressed. 

If interested, schedule an interview with Dr. Cadyn.
