Transgénero: transitando en la identidad narrativa del género

Abstract

The present research intervention is part of the Psychology, Family and Human Systems research line, in the research group in Psychology, Family and Networks. It aims to contribute to the Macro-project of Family Stories and Narratives in diverse contexts of the Master program in Clinical and Family Psychology of the Santo Tomás University. The phenomenon of study is connected with the construction of identity of people who move in their gender identity configuration. Three (3) interventive processes were carried out: two trans women and one trans man, attended in Psychological Care Services USTA. The questions that guided the investigation / intervention were: How is narrative identity constructed through the transformations and changes that people who are in a process of gender transition experience? How can a therapeutic context favoring change be built within the process of gender transition? A total of 27 sessions were made, three of them were in network intervention, spaces that allowed knowing the life stories of the consultants / participants, their understanding of gender, relational dynamics and vital prospective around the suffering they related living as people who travel in the genre. The general results reflect the relevance of the clinical intervention in people who define themselves as transgender and their systems of belonging, from a depathologizing perspective that involves relational readings in which the restructuring of the systems that have trans-life experiences is considered.
