Description: LGBTQ+ relationships face multiple challenges from fighting for the right to marry, adopt children, be accepted by family, or simply ordering a wedding cake. When living in less affirming areas, there may be pressure to hide their relationship in public or at work, leading to hesitance to seek out relationship therapy. This workshop will deliver research-backed resources clinicians can incorporate into their practice that provides LGBTQ+ couples the resources to strengthen their relationships.
