Featuring chapters written by scholars and clinicians who are also members of the LGBTQ+ and ally communities, LGBTQ+ Affirmative Addiction Counseling: In Their Own Words addresses a significant gap in addiction counseling knowledge for LGBTQ+ clients with substance use disorders (SUD+). The book integrates LGBTQ+ affirmative counseling principles with evidence-based addiction counseling to cultivate ethical, culturally responsive treatment practices.

The book provides readers with practical strategies to create inclusive and affirming spaces that foster resilience and lasting behavior change. Topics span a multitude of considerations, from understanding SUD+ trends within LGBTQ+ communities to discussing specific challenges faced by transgender, non-binary, and gender-expansive individuals. This book also fosters practical skills such as developing queer-affirming relapse prevention plans, harm reduction, and bolstering LGBTQ+ sexual wellness in recovery. The text incorporates reflections from LGBTQ+ individuals who have lived experiences with the continuum of substance use, process addictions, and recovery.

LGBTQ+ Affirmative Addictions Counseling is ideal for graduate programs focused on addiction counseling, LGBTQ+ studies, and mental health practice.
