Sexual minority populations experience disproportionately high rates of depression and anxiety relative to their heterosexual counterparts. Unfortunately, both sexual minority clients and their therapists experience difficulties in therapy. After conducting a review of the extant literature focused on approaches to treating depression and anxiety among sexual minority individuals in psychotherapy, this manuscript aims to: (1) Propose a taxonomy of existing practice models for treating sexual minority clients for depression and anxiety (protocol-based approaches, principles-based approaches, and relationship-based approaches); (2) Describe the current research findings of the evaluations of these practice models; (3) Offer recommendations for research and practice
