چکیده مقاله:
Gender dysphoria refers to the noticeable incongruence between gender identity and biological sex along with clinically significant distress or impairment in important domains of functioning. We presented a case study to illustrate the effective use of spiritual psychotherapy in a female with gender dysphoria.For this case, a total of thirty, 90-minute sessions were held with a spiritual therapist up to 8 months. A psychiatrist assessed the symptoms of gender dysphoria and life functioning at preintervention, 4 months after starting the intervention, postintervention, 1-year and 2-year follow-up using the psychiatric interviews according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fifth Edition (DSM-5).She showed no symptoms of gender dysphoria at postintervention and did not experience any relapse in the 1-year and 2-year follow-up. She could resolve her gender identity conflicts, improve life functioning, and continue her life as a female.Overall, spiritual psychotherapy can offer a potential new therapeutic approach to treat the clients with gender dysphoria.
