Abstract
A need exists to examine the strengths and limitations of literature on LGBTQ + student mental health since higher education and helping professionals use it to support LGBTQ + college students. A summative content analysis of LGBTQ + student mental health research from 2009 to 2019 yielded three themes: (1) how authors frame research, including decisions on methodology, frameworks, and samples; (2) mental health issues explored as involving descriptions and attributions of mental distress, together with the (lack of) systemic analysis; (3) implications provided to enhance LGBTQ + student well-being, such as more resources, structural changes, and training. Implications for practice and research are provided.
