LGBTQ+ & Mental Health: The Real Struggles, The Hope, The Healing
LGBTQ+ & Mental Health: The Real Struggles, The Hope, The Healing | The Your Life Matters Show Podcast
In this powerful episode of The Your Life Matters Show Podcast, we dive deep into the mental health challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community — from youth suicide and family rejection to the power of resilience, chosen family, and affirming care.
Joining us is our resident psychotherapist, Dr. Eric Davis, who helps us unpack the emotional impact of stigma, minority stress, and discrimination. We’re also joined by a special guest from the LGBTQ+ community who shares their personal journey — the pain, the healing, and the hope.
Whether you’re part of the LGBTQ+ community, an ally, a parent, or just someone who wants to understand better, this conversation is for you. Because everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and supported — and every life truly matters.
