Coming Out, Coming In: Nurturing the Well-Being and Inclusion of Gay Youth in Mainstream Society describes the process of "coming in" to a welcoming and nurturing family, from both the teen's and the parents' perspective. Linda Goldman draws on her personal and professional experience as a school guidance counselor, child and adolescent therapist, parent, and a member of the national group PFLAG to build a common language and a new paradigm for understanding sexual orientation and gender identity as a part of mainstream culture.
Through the information, exercises, anecdotes, and extensive bibliography of additional resources provided in the book, parents, school administrators & educators, community groups and counselors will find the tools needed to facilitate nurturing and safe environments for our LGBT youth.
Presented from Linda Goldman's unique perspective as a school guidance counselor, therapist, and mother, this ground-breaking text addresses the social, emotional, educational, and family issues involved with nurturing a gay adolescent in mainstream society. Written in an engaging and accessible style, and beautifully illustrated with photos and artwork, the book seeks to provide a common language and a new paradigm wherein we move away from stereotyping and judgment, and towards a single mainstream society that encompasses equality for all. Coming Out, Coming In includes counseling, coping, and welcoming environment techniques that can be used by mental health professionals, teachers, parents, and teens themselves.
