The Oxford Handbook of Sexual and Gender Minority Mental Health

Esther D. Rothblum, PhD is Professor of Women's Studies at San Diego State University and Visiting Distinguished Scholar at the Williams Institute, UCLA School of Law. She is editor of the Journal of Lesbian Studies and was president of Division 44 (Society for the Psychological Study of LGBT Issues) of the American Psychological Association. Her research and writing have focused on LGBT relationships and mental health. She has compared LGB and heterosexual siblings, as well as transgender and cisgender siblings. Since 2001, Dr. Rothblum has compared same-sex couples in legal relationships with their heterosexual married siblings. She has edited 27 books, including Lesbian Friendships, Preventing Heterosexism and Homophobia, Boston Marriages: Romantic But Asexual Relationships Among Contemporary Lesbians, Lesbians in Academia, and Loving Boldly: Issues Facing Lesbians.

By As the social and political contexts of LGBTQ+ people change, what troubles us and what renews us often change as well. In an effort to highlight some of these changes, Esther Rothblum has edited the recently released Oxford Handbook of Sexual and Gender Minority Mental Health. The book is quite comprehensive, covering a broad range of psychopathology across 37 chapters.
