In Brazil, it was after 1997, with the publication of the standardization of the Federal Council of Medicine, that the care and treatment of the transsexual population became more intensive. The Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Disorder Outpatient Unit AMTIGOS-NUFOR-IPq-HCFMUSP was established in 2010; there, patients with gender dysphoria are treated following the orientations of the World Professional Association for Transgender Health WPATH, adapted to the Brazilian social and cultural reality. The amtigos promotes multidisciplinary selections, mental health care and psychotherapy for adults and, more recently, adolescents and children brought by family members seeking counseling and treatment. Our proposal consists of a transdisciplinary approach based on our experience in order to provide adequate psychological, psychiatric and psychotherapeutic assistance for these patients. It is not about tutoring, but a joint development of responsibilities for the entire process.

Palabras clave : transsexuals; psychotherapy; transdisciplinarity; assistance; psychiatry.
