"Margie Nichols has written the most useful book for clinicians to update their skills in providing care to sexual and gender diverse individuals, couples and families. It is extremely timely, well written, practical and useful. This is a must read for every clinician!" - Eli Coleman, PhD, professor, director and academic chair of the Sexual Health Program in Human Sexuality, University of Minnesota Medical School.

"There are few people in the world as qualified as Margaret Nichols to guide mental health practitioners in working with sexual issues. No one understands the intersection of psychotherapy, non-traditional sexuality, and American culture better than Margie - a master in her craft, and a

brilliant teacher whose case descriptions and theory are instantly usable by clinicians of every background. Read this book - it will change the way you see your clients, yourself, and the way you do therapy with everyone." - Marty Klein, PhD, certified sex therapist, forensic expert, and author of Sexual Intelligence and His Porn, Her Pain.

"If you are looking for an understanding of how LGBTQ+ people made their journey from sinner to sick to affirmation, Dr. Nichols is the most trusted tour guide. A pioneer way before it was imaginable or even acceptable, Dr. Nichols creates the safe therapeutic, educational, and political space for Queer people (including kinksters and polyamorists) to take their psychological, relational, and political seats at the table. Her personal and professional journey contained in these pages is a tour-de-force of courage, persistence, and resistance. Filled with moving rich case material interwoven with scientific insight, historical events, and clinical advances, this book is beautifully written and describes how queer folks overcame societal and medical prejudice to become cultural disruptors and change agents.

Under Dr. Nichol's influence in this powerful book, psychology and psychotherapy will no longer be viewed as neutral, apolitical endeavors. As Nichols brazenly reveals the political in the 'scientific' and 'therapeutic,' we are encouraged, even compelled to ask not what we know about sexualities and gender, but who gets to shape the discourse. This book is a seminal contribution toward an inclusive and ever-changing understanding of queer psychologies. It should be read and studied by clinicians of all personal and theoretical persuasions." - Suzanne Iasenza, PhD, author of Transforming Sexual Narratives: A Relational Approach to Sex Therapy.

"At last, Dr. Margie Nichols, one of our pioneers, has compiled a resource that is required reading for anyone seeking to work with LGBTQ+ persons, those involved in kink, polyamory or anyone with an alternative sexual orientation, gender/gender identity or relationship/relating style. The case material along with thorough reviews of the sociohistorical and scholarly landscape make this book a standout among its peers. Written with hearts and smarts as well as humanity and compassion, this volume is destined to become a seminal text." - Michael C. LaSala, PhD, LCSW, author of Coming Out, Coming Home.
