Abstract

Literature addressing gender minority health has documented adverse behavioral health outcomes. “Gender minority” recognizes identities that include, but are not limited to, transgender and gender nonconforming. Although gender minority affirmative counseling exists, most continue to focus on pathology and diagnosis, leading people in the gender minority community to mistrust services. Sources of social support can ameliorate gender minority psychological distress by providing an environment that affirms gender identities. The purpose of this study was to identify gender minority peoples' perceptions of their experiences in a peer-led support group. The themes were then interpreted within the context of Roy's Adaptation Model.
