Popis: This study aimed to examine the difference in therapy satisfaction between LGB and heterosexual individuals, and to identify the association between therapy satisfaction and the perception of knowledge and attitudes of their last therapist among the LGB participants. Through an exploratory design with a comparative group, 125 participants were recruited online by availability. Results indicate that the participants’ sexual orientation has no significant relation on therapy satisfaction. However, there was a significant positive association between satisfaction with therapy and the therapist’s LGB knowledge and positive attitudes. This research highlights the importance for continuous education and curriculum efforts on LGB issues.
