Title: Trauma Informed Care Across the Lifespan for LGBTQI+ Individuals
Presenters: Gerard Lawson, PhD; Jyotsana Sharma, PhD; and Brandy Smith, MAEd
Description: Trauma does not discriminate, and yet LGBTQI+ individuals experience trauma and violence at higher rates than straight and cis individuals (Roberts, Austin, Corliss, Vandermorris, & Koenen, 2010). Moreover, there is potential for treatment providers to re-traumatize clients. This session will explore challenges facing LGBTQI+ clients, and introduce how trauma informed care strategies can support clients and avoid re-traumatization. Further, strategies for helping to position LGBTQI+ clients for progress in counseling and potentially for post traumatic growth will be explored. Applications and strategies for clients across the lifespan will be presented.
