    Interesting question.

    In the division of the American Psychological Association that I currently lead, we have expressed considerable concern for the plight of the G, L, and T military members who have all the current burdens of the military — as well as potential fear due to the “Don’t Tell, Don’t Ask” policy

    We have conducted interactions and surveys with active duty psychologists who report understanding and compassion as well as local authority to over ride the reporting requirement.

    The word out there in the field seems to be that it is really not an issue.

    But look at it from the point of view of the G, L, B service member. There has to be fear.

    If there is concerns that the local military mental health services might report, there are large groups of practitioners willing to provide service, either free or at a reduced cost.

    I can put you in touch with some of these.
