Abstract from book jacket.
Academic psychologists have been challenged to make psychology curricula more inclusive. Program changes involve revising undergraduate and graduate course material and content to represent the full spectrum of sexual orientation identity, development, and life dilemmas. Similarly, educators responsible for training in related mental health disciplines, mental health agencies, and other venues that deliver psychological services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered individuals have been appropriately challenged to make training competent practitioners a priority. Many practitioners find themselves confronted with clients they feel ill-equipped to address. This volume is intended to serve as a basic resource with information on salient LGBT issues, and to provide the reader with a range of references and other resources to explore key identity, development, and other subjects.
