Produktbeschreibung

¿"The key strength of Sexual Minorities and Mental Health is the interweaving of salient issues for lesbian, gay, bisexual and queer trans and cisgender people with therapeutic modalities and wider strategies for positive individual and societal change. Semlyen and Rohleder should be commended for producing a psychological collection that will be theoretically and practically illuminating for psychology, counselling and psychotherapy, and social work and social policy students. Newly qualified and experienced practitioners will also find this book beneficial for enhancing their cultural humility with clients."

-Elizabeth Peel, Professor in Communication and Social Interaction and Fellow of the British Psychological Society.

"I am incredibly excited to see this new book featuring the latest research and thinking about sexual minorities and mental health. This is a must-have and must-read book for all working in the field to inform clinical practice and guide further research."

-Dominic Davies FNCIP, FNCPS and Founder, Pink Therapy

This edited book presents a comprehensive guide to the research, challenges and differing perspectives within mental health for sexual minority populations in the UK. Drawing on clinical, social, health and community psychology perspectives, it brings the urgency of this topic back to the fore, providing insight into some of the ways we understand and make sense of the increased prevalence of poorer mental health in these populations. Ideal for practitioners in mental health and sexuality, as well as psychologists, policy makers, and academics alike interested in mental health, sexuality, public health, psychotherapy, or counselling, this collection features a wide array of qualitative and quantitative research sources to describe the current state of the art with an interdisciplinary lens.

Dr Joanna Semlyen is a health psychologist and associate professor in the Faculty of Medicine and Health at the University of East Anglia, UK. Dr Semlyen's research focus is on the health and healthcare experiences of minoritized populations and publishes widely in the area of health inequalities in gender and sexual minorities.

Dr Poul Rohleder is a clinical psychologist and psychoanalytic psychotherapist in private practice in central London. He is an Honorary Senior Lecturer at the Department of Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies, University of Essex, UK, and has been involved in the training of clinical psychologists and psychodynamic counsellors/psychotherapists for many years.
