For this episode, we have Dr. Hansel from New York sharing with us his expertise on what it means to support the LGBTQ+individuals when it comes to mental health. 

We learn that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer or LGBTQIA+ people struggle with mental health issues at higher rates than their heterosexual peers. They face multiple stressors such as homophobia and discrimination, issues around coming out, communicating with family, and finding a peer group. Finding a therapist that is openly, LGBTQ friendly, or specializes in LGBTQ+ issues can help validate a clients experience and make them feel heard.

Dr. Hansel Arroyo is a psychiatrist working in New York. After completing a residency in psychiatry at Mount Sinai Hospital, Dr. Arroyo pursued a psychoanalytic training at the New York Psychoanalytic Institute and a fellowship in psychosomatic medicine specializing in treatment of chronic medical conditions, particularly patients living with HIV. Dr. Arroyo’s career has focused in providing mental health to individuals in the LGBTQ+ community. In 2015 he became Director of Psychiatry for the Institute for Advanced Medicine, an LGBTQ+ clinic,  and was a founding member and Director of the Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery, where he developed the nation’s first Transgender Psychiatry Fellowship.
