LGBTQ+ Mental Health in Primary Care
It’s time for a down-to-earth, informative, and affirming discussion on LGBTQ+ mental health for primary care clinicians working with patients of diverse gender and sexual identities. In recent years, people have addressed these issues in a healthier, more public way, and all practitioners must be prepared to meet their patients with the knowledge, understanding, and grasp of cultural context of LGBTQ+ communities.
Learning Objectives
- List the three dimensions of sexual orientation.
- Describe the different identities used in LGBTQ+ terminology.
- Discuss culturally informed and culturally sensitive mental health treatment of sexual and gender minorities.
