Description

CBT, CFT, and DBT are prominent therapeutic approaches for the treatment of common mental health diagnoses, like depression, anxiety, and trauma. However, these approaches are often applied in ways that do not always consider the context of being an LGBTQ+ person. This presentation will cover the basic foundations of these modalities, review potential limitations of these approaches when working with LGBTQ+ people, and offer ways to consider the full intersectionality of LGBTQ+ people using these modalities.
