Mental health treatment preferences of sexual minority youth and young adults: Findings from three samples.

= 9,423). This study also explored whether demographic, mental health and mental health treatment, and minority stress factors were associated with preferences for treatment focus, treatment setting, and counselor involvement. Across samples, a higher proportion of participants endorsed counselor-led compared to self-guided treatment. Most participants across samples endorsed a desire for in-person treatment, while endorsement of remote treatment varied based on contextual factors (e.g., age, anxiety symptoms). Internalized stigma and family rejection were associated with increased likelihood of desiring a treatment focus on coping with LGBTQ-related stressful events. Findings emphasize the need to balance trade-offs between accessibility of services and treatment preferences when implementing interventions for this population at scale.
