GLBTQI and Addiction

Due to societal norms, religious condemnation, violence, and oppression, the Gay, Lesbian, Bi-sexual, Transgender, Questioning, and Intersex (GLBTQI) Community has one of the highest rates of addiction, depression, suicide... In addition, sexual orientation, gender identity, and sex minorities often struggle with self acceptance which contributes to their high addiction rates. Fear and experiences of rejection and misunderstanding can cause a GLBTQI person to avoid seeking help.

Robert A Bohls is a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor and Trauma and Addictive Disorders Therapist with over 15 years of experience as a therapist.

Robert believes that many of life's problems stem from the un-explored parts of ourselves. These 'parts' are trying to find expression and the longer we ignore and repress them, the worse we think and feel about ourselves.
