LGBT Therapy in Providence RI


Mental Health Issues & Coping with Stigma
Research suggests that LGBTQIA individuals seek mental health treatment at a higher rate than their non-LGBTQ counterparts. This may be due to the social stress and discrimination LGBTQ individuals often face on a regular basis, from society, family members, peers, co-workers, and even classmates. This dynamic is called the minority stress theory. This discrimination contributes to the higher rates of depression, anxiety, and other mental health struggles seen amongst LGBTQ people. Those in the LGBTQ community are also much more likely to have a substance use or abuse problem, engage in self-harm behaviors, and/or experience suicidal thoughts. Thus, it is not surprising this population seeks mental health services at higher rates.
