Homosexuality and the Mental Health Professions

by Jack Drescher, Committee on Human Sexuality

"This monograph acutely identifies problems of bais, overt and covert, as they affect the treatment of lesbian and gay patients and as they influence the training of mental health professionals. Incorporating clinical vignettes that detail actual incidents from a wide range of clinical and professional encounters, the report enables the clinician not only to review his or her own experience, but also to envision alternative possibilities of constructive and caring intervention."--BOOK JACKET.
