Despite increasing focus on the mental well-being of Queer and Trans (QT) youth, as well as those who hold BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) identities, the existing research literature lacks intersectionality in describing the experiences of youth who hold both these identities (QTBIPOC youth). Further, there is sparse clinical guidance in how best to support these youth within therapeutic settings. This article aims to provide a foundation for psychologists and other clinicians to support QTBIPOC youth's mental health and well-being, while also centering community, joy, and liberation. First, the literature surrounding best clinical practices for working with BIPOC and Queer and Trans youth populations is broadly reviewed and synthesized. Second, we draw on this literature to present a conceptual model for psychologists and other clinicians to conceptualize and sensitively respond to the ecologies, strengths, and needs of QTBIPOC youth. Finally, we provide practical recommendations on how to apply this conceptual model in clinical settings.
