Ron Scott – Psychotherapy with Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Clients 1: Historical Perspectives

Psychotherapy with Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Clients 1: Historical Perspectives
by Ron Scott

This first video in the Psychotherapy with Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Clients Series, explores the history of mental health practice with gay, lesbian and bisexual people.

The history of mental health practice with gay, lesbian and bisexual people is both complex and constantly evolving. This introductory program to the series focuses on some of the most important historical developments from ancient times to the present, including:

• Early attempts topathologize and change homosexuality.
• The influences that led to the depathologizing of homosexuality.
• The contemporary bias in psychotherapy, illustrated by a poignant account of therapy abuse by Robert Gentry, the nation’s first openly gay mayor.
• “Conversion therapies” to repathologize homosexuality and modern attempts to change sexual orientation.
• Recent affirmative mental health approaches.
• The current APA guidelines for working with GLB clients.
• Real testimony of affirmative psychotherapy from a client after years of negative therapy experiences.

Archival film clips and interviews with the experts are used throughout to illustrate this history of treatment approaches and mental health attitudes towards the GLB community.

In Depth

This is really an eye-opening and disturbing documentary of the way our professional has treated homosexuality in the past; at the same time we can take some pride in how far we’ve come as a profession, and as a society–although clearly much progress remains. The historical footage of antiquated “treatments” such as conversion therapy are really shocking, but required viewing for those who want an honest understanding of our history.
