Abstract
LGBTQ+ individuals experience disproportionately higher rates of psychological concerns compared to non-LGBTQ+ individuals and inadequate care from health care professionals, including counselors, represent a barrier to wellness. The Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies (MSJCC) highlight that counselor education programs must provide training that prepares students for working with all groups, including LGBTQ+ populations. The current presentation will discuss a dedicated course on ‘Counseling LGBTQ+ Clients’ as well as the results of an original research study that evaluated the impact of the course on student attitudes, competencies, and biases toward LGBTQ+ clients in comparison to other courses. Presenters will discuss the theoretical and pedagogical methods undertaken in the course using a critical, queer lens.
