    A Framework for Incorporating Minority Stress Theory into Treatment with Sexual Minority Clients

    No full text
    Empirical research has consistently demonstrated the negative mental health consequences of minority stress among lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) populations; however, there is little understanding of how minority stress should be addressed in the actual clinical situation. This article discusses how to incorporate minority stress theory into clinical practice with LGB clients. A proposed framework begins with a two-part clinical assessment. The first part, based on Meyer’s (2003) minority stress model, examines the effects of prejudice events, stigma, internalized homophobia, and sexual orientation concealment. The second part, grounded in Hatzenbuelher’s (2009) work, examines the client’s coping/emotional regulation, social/interpersonal, and cognitive processes, which can be elevated by minority stress. Following the assessment process, the framework suggests using a LGB-affirmative treatment approach. The framework will be applied to the treatment of a black lesbian client in order to demonstrate its clinical utility.Peer reviewe

    ‘The Darkest Times of My Life’: Recollections of Child Abuse among Forced Migrants Persecuted because of Their Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity

    No full text
    Numerous studies demonstrate that lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) children and youth are likely to experience abuse by peers, parents, and other adults and that these experiences correlate with a host of mental health problems. However, there is little understanding of the experiences of LGBT children and youth living in countries where social and legal protections for sexual and gender minorities are limited or nonexistent. This qualitative study used thematic analysis to explore the child and adolescent abuse experiences and their impact on the pre-migration mental health of LGBT forced migrants. We analyzed 26 interviews with individuals who obtained refugee or asylee status in the United States or Canada on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. Participants originated from countries in Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East. Analysis revealed the following themes: abuse by parents and caregivers, abuse by peers and school personnel, having nowhere to turn, and dealing with psychological distress. Findings indicate that participants experienced severe verbal, physical, and sexual abuse throughout childhood and adolescence and that this abuse occurred at home, in school, and in the community. Furthermore, there were no resources or sources of protection available to them. Participants linked their abuse to subjective experiences of depression, anxiety, and traumatic stress, as well as suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. We conclude with implications for refugee adjudication practices, mental health care, and international policy.© 2015.

    Exploring the Edward J. Bloustein dictionary collection

    No full text
    Edward J. Bloustein, was a man with a keen and informed interest in lexicography, and now the Rutgers University Libraries are fortunate to be in possession of his extensive personal library of dictionaries. These range from Thomas Cooper’s Latin/English glossary, Thesaurus linguae Romanae et Britannicae (1573) to the Webster’sThird New International Dictionary (1961) edited by Philip Gove, though the main periods of concentration are the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, during which time the dictionary as a genre evolved into its recognizably modern forms
