"The Handbook of Counseling and Psychotherapy With Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Clients, Second Edition, significantly builds on the areas of knowledge mapped in the award-winning first edition and explores the practical ramifications of changes in thinking regarding effective therapy with this population. In this thoroughly updated edition, the editors explore new material on identity formation, transgender issues, public policy, and clinical supervision of therapists. They also examine new areas of scholarship and reflect on implications of recent societal changes, including political struggles for gay civil unions, marriage, and adoption rights. This volume focuses on the complex cultural contexts of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender individuals and explores how to provide them with effective and affirmative psychotherapy across a range of presenting concerns. This second edition of the handbook will be an essential resource for therapists, counselors, and researchers"--Jacket. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved).
