JayeGender is more complex, more fluid and much more like a spectrum. For some people, their sense of gender shifts or fluctuates, and for many, it doesn’t fit neatly into boxes at all.

On Life Unfiltered this week Maria McHale discussed the psychology behind identity and the way our families, cultures and experiences shape how show up in the world.
She was joined by psychotherapist Siobhán McCarthy from Summit Counselling, to unpack how gender shows up in therapy, the impact it has on mental health and why open conversation is the key to moving forward.
