An Exploration to Inform Clinical Practice: Examining Mental

Title:
An Exploration to Inform Clinical Practice: Examining Mental Health Care Experiences of Trans Service Members and Veterans
Presenter(s)/Author(s):
Megan J. Doughty Shaine, Deanna N. Cor, Andrew J. Campbell, and Abbey L. McAlister
Description:
Mental Health Care Experiences of Trans Service Members and Veterans: A Mixed-Methods Study (Shane et al., 2021) explores the mental health care experiences of trans service members for the purpose of identifying training and practice recommendations for mental health providers. This study examines experiences with military and nonmilitary providers with a focus on stigma and barriers to care. Stigmatization significantly contributes to psychological distress for trans service members and veterans. Furthermore, trans service members and veterans experience high rates of depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress, suicide, and military sexual trauma. The authors conducted semistructured interviews with 10 participants. This CE provides professional counselors with information to better understand the lived experiences of trans service members and veterans and research findings to inform how to better serve these individuals.
Learning Objectives:
1.Recognize presenting issues, stigmas, and barriers that trans service members and veterans experience when seeking mental health services.
2.Identify how counselors can respond to the highlighted need for intersectional competence in working with LGBT and military populations.
3.Summarize the clinical practice relevance of the qualitative and quantitative findings to the four research questions outlined in this study.

De Opresso Liber, Part II: Counseling and Advocating

Title:
De Opresso Liber, Part II: Counseling and Advocating for Trans* Military Service Members During Uncertain Times
Presenter(s)/Author(s):
Deanna N. Cor, PhD and Megan J. Doughty Shaine, PhD
Description:
Following up on a presentation at the 2017 ACA Annual Conference and Expo, this educational session will provide attendees with contextually informed strategies for working with and advocating for trans- military service members and veterans during an uncertain time. In 2016 the Pentagon ended the ban on trans-people serving openly in the U.S. military—yet recent moves by the Trump Administration leave trans-service members feeling uncertain and fearful about their future. All counselors must be prepared for those service members, in the face of this uncertainty, to continue to seek services outside of the military. The authors will review background information in the context of the current political environment, followed by two case studies, based on original qualitative interviews with trans-military service members. They will then lead audience members in a workshop-style, small-group activity in which they will apply the information presented to the presented cases.
Learning Objectives:
1.Gain a better understanding of the unique mental health challenges faced by trans military personnel and veterans, as well as the barriers they have historically faced to both medical and mental health treatment.
2.Learn key concepts related to minority stress and identity concealment, and be able to apply those concepts, using the Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies framework, to the experiences of trans military clients through a case example.Ê
3.ApplyÊat least three potential counseling interventions/approaches, rooted in evidence-based treatments, that may be appropriate for the trans* military population.

Identity Development of South Asian Same-Sex Attracted Women

Title:
Identity Development of South Asian Same-Sex Attracted Women: Implications for Counseling
Presenter(s)/Author(s):
Surinder Bal, PhD
Description:
Asians are the fastest growing minority population in the USA; their population is projected to double to eight percent by 2050 (U.S. Census Bureau, 2010). South Asians comprise approximately a third of this population. By inference then, the South Asian LGBTQ population will also become a significant minority in the larger LGBTQ population. South Asian cultural values and beliefs significantly influence sexual identity development for both first- and second-generation same-sex attracted women, leading to unique experiences of discrimination and marginalization. Counselors working with this population must, therefore, sensitively incorporate these cultural factors for effective treatment planning and to avoid further harm by unintentionally reinforcing existing experiences of injustice and oppression.
Learning Objectives:
1.Gain an understanding of the cultural factors Influencing gender and sexual identity development.
2.Gain an understanding of the impact of immigration status on sexual identity development.
3.Gain an understanding of treatment strategies for mental health counselors working with this population.

If You See Something, Say Something: Responding to Student

Title:
If You See Something, Say Something: Responding to Student and Supervisee Microaggressions
Presenter(s)/Author(s):
Anita A. Neuer Colburn, PhD; John Marszalek, PhD; Kevin Snow, PhD; and Mary Aab
Description:
Counselor educators and supervisors train students and supervisees to become professional, ethical and competent counselors. However, some trainees are adamantly against working with LGBT people, some are insensitive about their language, and others don’t understand the inappropriate nature of their jokes. In this panel discussion LGBTQQIA counselor educators and supervisors discuss their own responses to slanderous speech, microaggressions, and overt ridicule regarding LGBTQQIA persons by students and supervisees. We will talk about our own emotional reactions and how they’ve changed over time, along with helpful and unhelpful responses to students/supervisees based on their own developmental level. Each panelist will briefly discuss one aspect of their experience, and we will then facilitate a discussion with attendees around best practices for managing emotional reactions while still offering appropriate responses to students and supervisees.
Learning Objectives:
1.Look at the effects on counselor educators when students make hurtful comments about an aspect of one’s identity.
2.Explore how the parts of one’s identity intersect and conflict with each other in difficult situations.
3.Learn ways to work with students and supervisees toward LGBT competence and advocacy
