These days, trying to understand what an issue is about sometimes takes a great deal of effort. Effort to clear away all the noise and get to the meaning of something. That's what we attempted to do on The Richard Piet Show with the transgender issue - remove the politics and bathroom chatter, and really try and understand what it means.

We turned to Bridget Nolan, a psychologist in private practice in Kalamazoo at Child and Family Psychological Services. In her practice, some of her clients are transgender. She told us what it really means and how professionals like her help folks get through the challenges that can be associated with it.
