Transgender and gender expansive (TGE) individuals encounter bias, discrimination, and harassment in systemic and interpersonal contexts, including healthcare environments. Research indicates that TGE people are more likely to experience mental health concerns, and that gender-affirming mental health services are vitally important to promote resilience and well-being. At the same time, scholarship indicates that mental health professionals feel underprepared to work with TGE clients. Professional organizations such as the American Psychological Association have developed and published guidance to help professionals provide competent, affirming services. The present study utilized a Solomon four-group design with a control group and pre- and post-testing to assess within-group and between-group differences in attitudes toward TGE people, self-efficacy in providing care to TGE clients, and sense of professional responsibility to deliver trans-affirmative care. A sample of 119 psychologists and graduate students in psychology viewed educational materials based on APA's (2015) Guidelines for Psychological Practice with Transgender and Gender Nonconforming People and completed the Transgender Attitudes and Beliefs Scale, Counselor Competence Gender Identity Scale, and the Professional Responsibility for Trans-Affirmative Care Survey. A two-way mixed ANOVA revealed that individuals who viewed TGE guidance content reported significantly more positive attitudes, higher self-efficacy, and greater sense of professional responsibility than individuals in the control group. Additionally, participants in the TGE guidance group reported significant increases in positive attitudes and sense of professional responsibility from pre-test to post-test. Results indicate that brief exposure to educational content can influence how psychologists and graduate students think about TGE people and approach trans-affirmative care in their professional roles. Implications and future directions for advocacy, education and training, research, and practice are discussed.
