I've been posting predominantly about my transition journey so far, which makes me feel like I've neglected the crossdressing community quite a bit for the past year. So I'd like to share a great resource I recently discovered that I think will be very useful for anyone with questions on gender identity, sexuality, being a crossdresser or being trans/enby.

Dr Natalia Zhikhareva, or Dr Z PhD as she is known on her Youtube channel, is a clinical psychologist specialising in transgender care. The gateway video I'd like to share is about crossdressing, sexuality, gender identity and gender dysphoria. Throughout my journey, I had been incredibly confused about who I was and how the 4 things tied in to each other. The video takes a while to get into the meat of the topic, but it is very illuminating to those who are still confused about who they are, especially crossdressers who have to navigate the boat load of shame associated with liking clothes of the opposite gender.

Dr Z has many, many gems in her youtube channel, that I have been devouring over the past year during my commute to work. She also made a 7 part series for partners of trans-identified individuals, which I had shared with my wife. In the videos, she provides a balanced position to partners that doesn't blindly take sides.

It's rare that clinicians who truly understand the struggles and journey of individuals who struggle with gender issue provide free content that is very useful. So do have a watch if you want to find out more about matters of gender. If you do like her videos, you can also support her channel by subscribing.
