Keyword Tips

Use the following keywords:

"LGBT*" - Use the asterisk after the Q to capture any variations of this concept, including LGBTQIA+....
"couples" N3 (therapy or counseling or psychotherapy) - This means you want the word couples within three words of therapy/counseling/psychotherapy. It acts as a shortcut for various possibilities.
