LGBTQ+ Affirmative Counseling: A Student and Practitioner Handbook

doi:10.1017/9781009342407

Addressing a need for LGBTQ+ affirmative counselling in training, this meticulously crafted book is designed for graduate counselling students, new practitioners, and cross-disciplinary professionals. Authored by top researchers and clinicians, this collection synthesizes best practices in training and intervention, presenting a blueprint to seamlessly integrate affirmative counselling into academic curricula. Individual chapters cover topics including history, culture, assessment, treatment planning, crisis response, international perspectives, technology, and training. Enriched with resources, real-life case examples, and thoughtful reflection questions, the book moves beyond theory to provide actionable insights for effective LGBTQ+ affirmative counselling in diverse organizational settings. Tailored for graduate programs, this book equips future practitioners to adeptly navigate the complexities of affirmative counselling.

‘… a must-have for the tool kit of any mental health professional wishing to truly be positioned to counsel those with gender identities outside the scope of heterosexual identity. … Highly recommended.’
