I can choose anyone for this activity:

LGBTQIA+ clients have experienced discrimination from some counselors and that has been supported by some state legislators. This is based off of your opinion:

• What competencies do you most need to develop in working effectively with sexual orientation and gender identity issues?
• How would you react if 3 months into a therapeutic relationship you learned that your client was attracted to same-sex partners?
• How open are you to counseling a same-sex couple who want to explore their difficulties in the area of intimate relationships?
• To what degree are you familiar with the specific issues of discrimination facing many LGBT people?
• What steps can you take to learn more about the LGBT community and mental health issues that pertain to this group?
