Abstract
Working with LGBTQ people regarding sex and relationship problems may be intimidating for the psychiatrist with little experience. This article provides an overview of common sex and relationship problems that can be encountered in clinical work with a focus on LGBTQ couples therapy. Topics include sex difficulties and their causes, drugs and alcohol, the effect of "the closet," discordant "outness" in couples, issues regarding sex roles, LGBTQ parenting, and issues arising when a member of a couple is transitioning.Entities:
