Given that qualitative and mixed methods have been used to address social justice issues, counseling psychologists have been drawn to these research designs to advance knowledge in the field. However, qualitative and mixed methods are rarely used in counseling psychology to examine the experiences of LGBTQ individuals. This content analysis reviewed all qualitative and mixed methods studies conducted with LGBTQ individuals between 2009 and 2019 in three leading counseling psychology journals. Results from 24 studies revealed: (a) an increase in LGBTQ-related topics; (b) an overreliance in grounded theory as a research design, diverse analytical approaches, overreliance on semi-structure interviews, and increased disclosure of reflexivity and trustworthiness; and (c) an overwhelming representation of White, cisgender, gay and lesbian, middle class, college educated, English-speaking, Christian, mainland United States residents. We pose a call to action for the next decade of qualitative and mixed methods research with LGBTQ individuals in counseling psychology.

鉴于已使用定性和混合方法来解决社会正义问题，咨询心理学家已被这些研究设计所吸引，以推进该领域的知识。然而，在咨询心理学中很少使用定性和混合方法来检查 LGBTQ 个体的经历。该内容分析回顾了 2009 年至 2019 年间在三本领先的咨询心理学期刊上对 LGBTQ 个体进行的所有定性和混合方法研究。24 项研究的结果显示：(a) 与 LGBTQ 相关的话题增加；(b) 过度依赖扎根理论作为研究设计，多样化的分析方法，过度依赖半结构式访谈，以及更多地披露反思性和可信度；(c) 白人、顺性别者、男同性恋者和女同性恋者、中产阶级的压倒性代表，受过大学教育，讲英语，基督徒，美国大陆居民。我们呼吁在未来十年与 LGBTQ 个体在咨询心理学中进行定性和混合方法研究。
