O estudo sobre a identidade de género, surge na investigação científica, como um tema que é alvo de uma carga patológica indiscriminada por associação aos movimentos que com-preendem o processo do desenvolvimento infantil e que estabelecem o paradigma conceptual da sexualidade ortodoxa.
Hoje em dia, é possível afirmar que a desconstrução da sexualidade promoveu a composição de um motor de busca para a comunidade terapêutica, que ambiciona dar resposta a todas as questões que este tópico provoca no mundo interno dos indivíduos que apresentam incongru-ências entre o corpo sexuado e o género estabelecido psiquicamente ou todos aqueles que sim-plesmente não se inserem dentro do sistema binário socialmente imposto. Assim sendo, este estudo visa explorar a necessidade de criar um espaço seguro de partilha, no qual seja possível acompanhar a transição do individuo e incentivar a sua emancipação. Pretende, também, de-preender as diversas dimensões que englobam a autodeterminação do género em consideração à mudança, aos papeis sociais, à abordagem clínica e à relação terapêutica.
Numa primeira etapa da investigação, foi realizado um enquadramento teórico, no qual são retratados alguns conceitos chave sobre a temática para uma compreensão mais ilustrativa do estudo em causa. De seguida, é apresentado o artigo empírico que consta uma análise de dados aprofundada sobre o ponto de vista do profissional de saúde em referência ao trabalho clínico com a comunidade trans.
The study of gender identity, appears in the cientific investigation as a theme that is the target of an indiscriminate pathological load - associated with movements that comprise the process of child development and that establish the conceptual paradigm of the ortodox sexua-lity. Nowadays, it is possible to affirm that the deconstruction of sexuality promoted the composi-tion of a search engine in the therapeutic comunity, which aims to answer all the questions that this topic raises in the internal world of individuals who present incongruence between the sexed body and gender psychically established or all those who simply do not fit into the soci-ally imposed binary sistem. Therefore, this study aims to explore the need to create a safe space for sharing, in which it is possible to monitor the individual's transition and encourage their emancipation. It also intends to understand the various dimensions that encompass gender self-determination in consideration of change, social roles, the clinical approach and the therapeutic relationship. In the first stage of the investigation, a theoretical framework was carried out, in which some key concepts on the subject are portrayed for a more illustrative understanding of the study in question, in the perspective of the health professional in reference to clinical work with the trans community.
