You know sexuality and gender may inform the substance use issue which is the presenting problem, and so developing a certain amount of competence as a professional to at least recognize and provide an open, accepting space for clients can be key sometimes to really helping some of these folks manage the true pathology of substance use or abuse, I would say, in addiction.
Ever thought about how sexuality and gender impact the recovery journey? In this eye-opening episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', Mary Woods sits down with Charles Strauss, a clinical social worker, to discuss these often-overlooked aspects. Strauss dives into the diverse world of sexuality and gender, shedding light on how they intersect with addiction and mental health. He shares nuanced models and developmental pathways, along with real-life examples of both stress and resilience in the LGBT community.
The conversation emphasizes the importance of healthcare providers who respect and honor the whole human being. If you're a health professional or someone seeking support, this episode is packed with valuable insights and resources.
