The Modern Clinician's Guide to Working with LGBTQ+ Clients is a ground-breaking resource for therapists working with LGBTQ+ clients whose identity expressions span all gender-, sex-, and relationship-diverse groups.

The text also offers in-depth coverage of clinical work with transgender, gender-nonconforming, and nonbinary clients of all ages. With a wealth of therapeutic strategies and case studies, this resource helps professionals respond to this ‘Big Tent’ community in an informed and empathetic way.
Spanning sexuality, gender, relationships and age groups, The Modern Clinician's Guide to Working with LGBTQ+ Clients is an invaluable reference for psychotherapists in a broad range of clinical settings.

This thing is a GOLDMINE.
The author Margret Nichols ABSOLUTELY RULES!
Should be required reading in therapist training programs.
TOO MUCH OF VALUE TO SUMMARIZE.
But broadly.
The book covers:
Early days of LGBTQ movement.
How things have changed (and boy have they).
Issues important to counseling contemporary gender, sex and relationally diverse (GSRD) individuals and communities including (but certainly not limited to):
- Consensually non monogamous (CMN) couples.
- Gender fluidity.
- Pansexuality.
- Supporting transgender children, adults, and families.
- Kink, including BDSM or whatever else turns your crank.
FU KING GREAT RESOURCE.
I’ll say it again.
This thing is a must read.
Even (particularly) if you’re well acquainted with GSRD individuals, communities, and issues.
Plus it’s a LOT OF FUN.
Margret Nichols is a PUNCHY as fuck writer.
And despite being a BOOMER, she knows her shit, shes seen it All, and she’s WAY open and nonjudgmental.
5/5 ⭐️

This book make you learn without realising that you are learning, well written the concept are well presented, explained and supported by a lot of exemple and scientific data
My only critics is the lact of research outside of the english langage/usa for some chapter, or the concious decision to not include somestudy not supporting some view, for the BDSM section some studies shoukd have been include and discussed that were not
Love the book, love the case vignette and the clinical reflection it make you do, some subject could be more researched do.
