One of the many challenges for trans individuals is that presented by the very people they look to and rely on for help: medical and mental health providers. Both play key roles in the process of physical transition for individuals who choose to pursue it, yet an astoundingly large portion of providers are utterly unprepared to provide quality assistance towards such a goal. As a result, many trans people encounter frustration, confusion, disrespect, and sometimes even sabotage from the very people whom they are supposed to trust with their well-being.
