Reid, Season 2

Reid Vanderburgh started his social transition in 1995, and began taking hormones in 1997. He is a retired therapist who worked with nearly 500 trans clients during the course of his career, helping them answer the question, “how do I want to live my life?” In the realm of gender identity. Reid is the author of two books, two journal articles, and numerous book chapters. He is on the board of the Portland chapter of PFLAG, a support organization for families of those who come out. In his spare time, Reid sings baritone in the Portland Gay Men’s Chorus.

Reid is one of STP's most popular guests who returns to the pod. He discusses another form of transition during his life: aging. Reid is a wonderful storyteller whose good humor and insight will make you fall in love with him, just as we did.
