UMD PRC Mental Health Therapist LGBTQ+ Competency Self-Assessment

Abstract

The Mental Health Therapist LGBTQ+ Competency Self-Assessment was created by the University of Maryland Prevention Research Center for mental and behavioral health professionals to self-reflect and assess their own competencies related to providing LGBTQ+ affirmative care in the following areas: knowledge, attitudes, self-efficacy, and practice. This self-assessment takes 15-20 minutes to complete. Each section includes scoring information and interpretations to assist professionals in understanding their current levels of LGBTQ+ competencies.
