Psychiatrist's notes on trans patient

"Patient finally got around to asking where I got these lovely rainbow suits. Patient was apologetic, not trying to suggest anything, except they were. Patient was assured I knew what they meant.

Patient tentatively asked if it came in skirts, and if it would be okay to wear a new outfit for sessions. Patient worried it might seem flattering or whatever. Patient was amenable to suggestion of more formal skirtsuit.

Patient did as instructed. Patient revealed basic things they'd felt silly overlooking and hiding from me. Patient wondered if a more colorful skirtsuit would provide bigger breakthroughs. Patient was instructed to trust themselves and go at their own pace.

Patient mentioned next week that more ideas flowed at home wearing a skirt suit and thinking of what to talk about. Patient worried wearing skirt suits with heels or boots was unrealistically overfeminine. Patient was assured, again, they'd done more self-reflection than most, so dress in whatever inspired them most."
