Referral for low-cost psychotherapy

This is a stressful time of year for students. It is important to talk about any feelings that might be related to school, relationships, and family. It is also important for therapists in training to have the experience of being a patient in psychotherapy. It adds to one’s total experience as a therapist. If any students are interested getting into their own psychotherapy, Geoff Goodman can give you a referral for low-cost psychotherapy near where you live (ggoodman@liu.edu, x4277).

INTEGRATING HOMOSEXUAL IDENTITY DEVELOPMENT INTO A THEORY
OF SEPARATION-INDIVIDUATION
Christopher J. Keller
The relationship among stages of homosexual identity development and level of object representation, level of differentiation-relatedness, and level of reflective functioning was explored, as well as endorsed psychological symptoms. The Gay Identity Questionnaire, the Object Representations Inventory, and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale were administered to 120 adults, identifying as sexual minorities. Results suggest a relationship between stages of homosexual identity development and level of object representation, level of differentiation-relatedness, and level of reflective functioning. The findings also suggest that there is a relationship between stages of homosexual identity formation and symptoms of anxiety, but not with symptoms of depression or stress. In addition, the findings also provide evidence that self-identified sexual orientation may be a good predictor of stage of homosexual identity formation.
