Sexual minoritized veterans face unique stressors throughout their life span and during military service. The aims of the current manuscript are to (1) define and highlight the effects of sexual minority stress, discrimination, and trauma exposure on mental health for sexual minoritized veterans, (2) provide relevant historical context of military policies addressing sexual minority servicemembers and overview the impact of these policies on mental health and access to care; and (3) provide clinical considerations for treating trauma with sexual minoritized veterans. This paper concludes with suggestions for treatment approaches to concurrently address sexual minority stress within evidence-based treatment for posttraumatic stress disorder.
