“…This needs to be challenged by practice that ensures treatment provided reflects (a) self‐awareness of personal and societal LGBT biases, prejudices and stigma; (b) knowledge of important LGBT health care and psychosocial issues; and (c) LGBT clinical skills grounded in professional ethics, guidelines and standards of care (Bidell & Stepleman, 2017). The research into interventions adapted to meet LGBT communities’ needs is sparse but there is some such as: group cognitive behavioural therapy (Austin et al., 2018; Ross et al., 2007; Smith et al., 2017); individual cognitive behavioural therapy (Lucassen et al., 2015); and an on‐line communication intervention (DiNapoli et al., 2014).…”

Accessible summary What is known on the subject? There is evidence that the LGBT communities experience greater health disparities, particularly in relation to their mental health needs. The LGBT communities are often faced with stigma and discrimination within mental health services. What the paper adds to existing knowledge? People within the LGBT communities have identified that their experiences of mental health services reinforce stigma and lack an understanding of their specific needs. Their needs can be addressed by mental health services that challenge heteronormative assumptions and promote self‐acceptance and equity. What are the implications for practice? The existing heteronormative culture in mental health nursing practice needs to be challenged. Practice needs to demonstrate self-awareness of personal and societal LGBT biases, prejudices, and stigma. Practice needs to demonstrate knowledge of important LGBT health care and psychosocial issues. Practice needs to reflect LGBT clinical skills grounded in professional ethics, guidelines, and standards of care. Abstract Introduction The lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) communities are a minority population that experience a range of health disparities, including mental health. Because these groups have higher rates of mental disorder than the general population it is, therefore, pertinent to identify their specific mental health needs and their experiences when accessing mental health care. Aim To identify the mental health needs of the LGBT communities and their experiences of accessing mental health care. Methods An integrative review of qualitative studies was conducted. Results A total of fourteen studies were selected for this review. The studies identified that participants’ experiences of accessing mental health care were related to (a) experiencing stigma and (b) staff's lack of knowledge and understanding of LGBT people's needs. They identified a need for mental health care that promotes the principles of equity, inclusion and respect for diversity. Discussion The LGBT communities while not a homogenous group, face unique challenges when dealing with their mental health needs. Services that promote health equity and self‐acceptance are important for this group. Implications for practice It is vital that mental health nursing education incorporate models that promote equity, inclusion and respect for diversity regarding this group of people.

“…DiNapoli et al . () note, ‘The Healthy People 2020 report has identified that isolation, lack of social services, and a shortage of culturally competent providers serve as barriers to the health of LGBT individuals who have HIV/AIDS’ (p. 91). Furthermore, ‘The use of technology‐enabled social and community support and group interventions through computer mediated self‐help (CMSH) with LGBT individuals may help meet mental health needs of this group, and support healthy lifestyle practices’ (p. 91).…”

Many of the nursing theories have been tested; it has been proven by research that it has a great contribution to improving the quality of health care, expanding understanding in nursing research, and ensuring the development of societies with professional practices based on biopsychosocial approaches. In this context, this article includes the analysis and evaluation of the nursing theories Pamela G. Reed's "Self-Transcendence Theory" to the Turkish literature. For this, Fawcett's (2005) "Framework for the analysis and evaluation of nursing theories" was used. According to this structure, the analysis includes a non-judgmental, detailed examination of the theory, including "the scope of the theory, the context of the theory, and the content of the theory"; evaluation is within the scope of "importance, internal consistency, simplicity, testability, empirical competence and pragmatic competencies of the theory"; it was made in a way to answer the questions under each scope. The theorist of the theory is a psychiatric nurse, and the skills related to the application of the theory are in accordance with the nature of psychiatric nursing. When the literature is examined, no article has been found in our country that defines, analyzes and evaluates Self-Transcendence Theory. In this sense, it is thought that this article will contribute to the creation of useful models based on nursing theories in order to facilitate the recognition, understanding and use of the theory.
