Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer-identifying (LGBTQ) individuals have mental and physical health outcomes that are worse than their heterosexual or cisgender peers (Gilman, Cochran, Mays, Hughes, Ostrow, & Kessler, 2001) yet seek therapy at rates higher than those of their heterosexual peers (Medley et al., 2016). Little is known about the help-seeking attitudes and intentions of LGB people. 782 LGB participants completed a open and close-ended survey about their attitudes and intentions to seek psychological help, as well as questions related to their sexual orientation. Negative identity predicted poorer help-seeking attitudes and intentions of LGB people as a group. Lesbians, gay men, and bisexual individuals also differed from each other in their identity beliefs and help-seeking attitudes and intentions. These results highlight the need for reducing stigma toward mental health treatment and the role of stigma in seeking mental health treatment. The results also highlight the need for strong demographic methodology when researching sexual and gender minorities as well as respecting the unique identities within the queer community. Clinical implications and future research directions are presented.
