APA Symposium to Examine Alternatives to Claiming a Gay Identity
Dr. Mark Yarhouse, Associate Professor of Psychology at Regent University, will
chair a symposium at the 2004 annual conference of the American Psychological
Association titled, "Sexual Identity Confusion During Adolescence: Religious,
Diversity and Professional issues."
The symposium brings together different perspectives on sexual identity
confusion during adolescence and young adulthood.
Two participants, Dr. A. Lee Beckstead and Marybeth Rayes, are presenting papers
from a gay-affirmative perspective, while Dr. Yarhouse and Dr. Warren
Throckmorton are giving papers from an alternative perspective.
Dr. Yarhouse's paper is titled, "An Inclusive Approach to Navigating Sexual
Identity Confusion in Adolescence" and Dr. Throckmorton's paper is titled,
"Identity Confusion During Young Adulthood: Working with Conservative Religious
Clients."
The APA conference is being held in Honolulu, Hawaii, July 28-July 31.
