Earlier we mentioned some of the causes of the epidemic of severe mental health issues among children:

Destroy pride in our heritage, deny the sense of meaning provided by religion, tell kids they are inherently bad or inherently helpless because of their race, mess up their minds by encouraging them to believe they are members of the opposite sex, shriek that the planet is dying because of humans, cancel their economic future beneath mountains of government debt, submerse them in the nihilistic sewage that passes for popular culture, then lock them in their rooms with social media for a couple of years. When they emerge into the outer world blinking like moles in the sunlight, don’t expect mental health.

Compounding the problem is that when kids seek treatment for mental health issues largely caused or exacerbated by moonbattery, they are often treated by mental health professionals who are themselves moonbats, and who may even be insane:

Diane Ehrensaft, a self-identified “feminist” who supports a “gender revolution,” is the director of mental health and chief psychologist at the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital gender development center. She is also a professor at UCSF School of Medicine. The developmental and clinical psychologist specializes in pediatric “gender-affirmative care for transgender and gender-expansive patients.”

UCSF = University of California, San Francisco. Buckle up for a ride on the crazy train.

Ehrensaft focuses her research on how genders before puberty develop as well as the mental health effects of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones, which are part of chemical sex changes, on children.

It can be assumed that from her viewpoint, the mental health effects will be beneficial, provided they drive children into psychosis that will put them on track for horrific sex change surgeries.

Ehrensaft made what some may consider fringe claims about gender ideology, including that kids can identify as “gender hybrids” which include a mythology-inspired creature called a “gender Minotaur,” and that kids can change their genders by season and can have different identities depending on their location.

She didn’t get to her position without being at the vanguard of gender ideology.

“I totally agree we are in the midst of a gender revolution and the children are leading it. And it’s a wonderful thing to see. And it’s also humbling to know [children] know more than we do about this topic of being gender expansive,” she said during a 2018 talk at the San Francisco Public Library.

Or rather, children are being led into leading it — by aging hippies:

Ehrensaft believes the transgender revolution is the next phase of the 60s feminist movement, which featured challenging stereotypes about gender.

Ehrensaft is not a mental health professional so much as a leftist social engineer. This is typical of all professions that have been infiltrated, subverted, and repurposed by moonbats.

Instead of displaying mastery of the forty-eleven gender identities, to achieve their credentials mental health professionals should have to pass a review by normal people to determine whether they are sane enough to offer guidance to others.
