Erwin,Terry McVannel
Journal of Counseling & Development, v84 n1 p95-107 Win 2006
Letters submitted to the discussion forum of the Lesbian Connection between 2000 and 2002 were analyzed to identify issues of importance to lesbians. The analysis revealed 5 discussion categories: (a) isolation, safety, and aging; (b) children; (c) lesbian relationships and sexuality; (d) physical and mental health; and (e) political issues. The author presents an overview of those discussions along with the implications of the findings for counselors working with lesbian clients.
