contents <p><span>In this TELUS Talks episode, psychotherapist and author Raheem Thawer discusses his book, "The Mental Health Guide for Cis and Trans Queer Guys." He argues that effective, affirming care must move beyond an exclusive focus on HIV to address the broader subcultural determinants of mental health for queer men. Thawer emphasizes how systemic oppression, internalized shame, and community norms around bodies, masculinity, and relationships directly impact well-being. The conversation advocates for a politicized, context-aware clinical approach that equips individuals with tools like CBT to navigate these unique pressures and foster resilience within LGBTQIA+ communities.</span></p>
