Family First NZ

We speak to the founder and Executive Director of @Genspect Dr Stella O'Malley about the best available evidence for the care of children with gender dysphoria and gender-questioning youth. Dr O'Malley is a prominent international voice in the struggle for the rights of concerned parents and detransitioners. She has been on a speaking tour of Australia and NZ.

Dr Stella O'Malley's qualifications include a B.A. in Counselling and Psychotherapy, an M.A. in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, diplomas in Youth Studies, Psychometric Testing, and Gender Identity Counselling and a PhD in Social Work, with research focused on parents’ perceptions of gender dysphoria in children and adolescents. Stella co-authored "When Kids Say They're Trans" (2023) with fellow therapists Sasha Ayad and Lisa Marchiano, to offer a resource for parents who want their children to flourish, but do not believe that hasty medicalisation is the best way to ensure long-term health and well-being. Stella is the founder and Executive Director of Genspect, an international organisation that advocates for a healthy approach to sex and gender. Genspect powers many other initiatives in this field such as Stats for Gender, Beyond Trans, and Pitt Parents.
