For one of my classes (Queer Counseling and Narrative), I need to write a paper in which I do a "first session" counseling an LGBTQ person or couple, then write up a summary of the full course of therapy.
This is not about diagnosis, and the character does not need to have a mental illness. They just need to have some sort of issue or life circumstance which might be helped with therapy.
Can you suggest a character or characters who might be fun to do this with? Criteria:
1. They must be LGBTQ. (They don't have to necessarily explicitly identify that way.)
2. The work they come from must be contemporary (or near-contemporary) realism. No fantasy or sf.
3. Ideally, this will be something I've already read. If not, it should be something comparatively easy to read and obtain.
4. The work must be fiction.
Please give a little bit of detail if you suggest something.
