Headcase

LGBTQ Writers & Artists on Mental Health and Wellness

324 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Headcase uses a collection of personal reflections and artistic representations to illustrate the intersection of mental wellness, illness, and LGBTQ identity, as well as the the lasting impact of historical views equating lesbian or gay identity with mental illness. The pieces offer personal views from both providers and clients, often one and the same, about their experiences. The volume breaks new ground in documenting issues in LGBTQ mental health care with these superbly written and powerfully rendered personal and political stories and images.
