  Randall Hager, LIMHP, NCC Presents: Transdiagnostic Considerations of LGBTIQ+ Clients 

  (Pre-Recorded, Available On Demand until October 10th)

  
  

  When client identifies as a sexual minority but does not present with identity concerns, does their identity need to be a part of their diagnosis or treatment? New research and treatment techniques show you how to help clients realize that their presenting symptoms may be intersecting with their LGBTQ identity in ways they do not realize.

  This presentation will give an overview how to overlap Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy with LGBTQ clients beyond identity formation.

  Randall Hager, LIMHP, NCC is in private practice in Omaha, Nebraska. Many clients of Randy identify as LGBTQ and start therapy wanting to work on topics outside of their identity such as relationships, depression, and anxiety. In addition to work as a therapist, Randy is a consultant to other therapists as well as presents at seminars, schools and civic organizations. Randy’s work is informed by degrees in psychology and mental health, along with a history of communication and marketing.

  This is a pre-recorded presentation, which you will receive access to once you have registered. Information will be sent via your registration email, including the video link, quiz link, and handouts. Please complete the quiz included in your registration email by no later than 5pm on October 10th, 2025 to receive your CE certificate. CE certificates will be sent automatically when you complete and pass the quiz (8/10 correct). You may take the quiz as many times is necessary to pass.
