The latest psychiatric classification, DSM V (APA, 2013), has worded the criteria in such a way as to include non-binary identities as follows: 4. A strong desire to be of the other gender (or some alternative gender different from one\u2019s assigned gender) 5. A strong desire to be treated as the other gender (or some alternative gender different from one\u2019s assigned gender) 6. A strong conviction that one has the typical feelings and reactions of the other gender (or some alternative gender different from one\u2019s assigned gender.<\/p>\n

(APA, 2013, p. 452f.; italics not in original) As aforementioned, it is likely that the forthcoming revised ICD 11 will follow suit in this regard. Clinical guidelines such as those produced by the World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH) have reflected the growing awareness of non-binary gender identities in their latest standards of care, version 7 (Coleman et al., 2012).<\/p>\n

There has been a clear shift in understanding of trans and non-binary identities with growing awareness of a spectrum of gender identities and expressions. Whilst trans identities and narratives have evolved and psychiatric diagnoses have lagged, the number of people identifying as non- binary has been growing. However, it has been difficult to gain an accurate impression of the prevalence of binary-identified trans people from those attending gender identity clinic services as traditionally treatment has been offered to those who identify as the \u2018opposite\u2019 gender.<\/p>\n

Non-binary- identified individuals may have not been offered a diagnosis and treatment or they may have felt the need to fit themselves into the available [binary] psychiatric discourse in order to gain treatment. Clinicians will need to find ways to engage with transgender people to allow the expression of the full range of non-binary identities (Wiseman & Davidson, 2011). The Prevalence of Non-binary Identities As non-binary identities have become more recognised and treatments are adapted, it is likely that more non-binary-identified people will attend gender identity services requesting assistance and treatment.<\/p>\n

This series brings together scholars from a range of disciplines who have produced work which both informs the academy and, crucially, has real- world applied implications for a variety of different professions, including psychologists; psychiatrists; psychotherapists; counsellors; medical doctors; nurses; social workers; researchers and lecturers; governmental policy advisors; non-governmental policy advisors; and peer support workers, among others.<\/p>\n

The series critically considers intersections between sexuality and gender; practice and identity; and theoretical and applied arenas \u2013 as well as questioning, where appropriate, the nature or reality of the boundaries between them. In short, it aims to build castles in the sky we can live in \u2013 after all the view is nothing, without a place to stand.
