Guidelines for the Treatment of Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Clients

While they are not specific to CBT, the American Psychological Association's Guidelines for Psychotherapy with Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Clients (which can be found at http://www.apa.org/pi/lgbc/publications/guidelines.html) may be useful, especially if you do not work with LGB clients on a regular basis and do not many LGB individuals well. The guidelines both present the APA's view of how therapists should approach LGB clients and provide basic information for those who aren't familiar with LGB culture and issues.
