- Embracing Authenticity: A Depth Psychological Perspective on Mental Health Issues Within the LGBTQ+ Communities.
Pacifica Graduate Institute invited all to celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride with our virtual LGBTQ+ panel on August 24th. This event provided a spotlight of the LGBTQ+ community with a panel discussion on queer and trans issues, depth psychology, and mental health.
We explored the psychological and emotional experiences of the LGBTQ+ community, societal barriers to equity, how LGBTQ+ people process trauma, the impact of heteronormativity and homophobia on self-image and self-acceptance, and how LGBTQ+ people navigate identity and relationships. The event featured a panel discussion from Pacifica Graduate Institute students, staff, and faculty in addition to LGBTQ+ community leaders, hosted by Kristin Flickinger, Executive Director of the Pacific Pride Foundation.
Thank you for this. It's a pleasure to hear and see such well-spoken people on this topic.
