Background\/Objectives: This study aimed to explore how stigma and institutional trust influence 2S\/LGBTQIA+ survivors\u2019 experiences of help-seeking following IPV-BI. Guided by a Community Advisory Board, four semi-structured focus groups were conducted with 29 2S\/LGBTQIA+ IPV-BI survivors. Methods: Reflexive thematic analysis was used to examine participants\u2019 help-seeking accounts, with attention to minority stress and intersecting stigmas related to IPV, BI, and 2S\/LGBTQIA+ identity. Results: The findings indicate that survivors navigated compounded stigmas that limited access to safe, affirming services and heightened vulnerability during help-seeking. Institutional trust was central to participants\u2019 decisions to disclose sensitive information and engage in care, with confidentiality emerging as a critical determinant of perceived safety. Participants described negotiating disclosure, anticipating discrimination, and avoiding services when systems were perceived as unsafe or unresponsive. Conclusions: These findings highlight the need for service systems to integrate IPV-BI into screening and support protocols, provide training on the intersections of IPV, BI, and 2S\/LGBTQIA+ identities, and centre confidentiality as a condition for trust and access, ultimately fostering safer, more responsive systems of care.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/healthcare14080997","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,10]],"date-time":"2026-04-10T09:08:12Z","timestamp":1775812092000},"page":"997","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["\u201cIt Was Traumatizing, Because It Makes You Feel Like You Are Not Right\u201d: 2S\/LGBTQIA+ Survivors\u2019 Experiences Accessing Care for Intimate Partner Violence-Caused Brain Injury"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Emily","family":"Chisholm","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of History and Sociology, University of British Columbia\u2013Okanagan, Kelowna, BC V1V 1V7, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1959-5150","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tori N.","family":"Stranges","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Health and Exercise Sciences, University of British Columbia\u2013Okanagan, Kelowna, BC V1V 1V7, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2219","DOI":"10.1089\/neu.2023.0543","article-title":"Intimate Partner Violence-Related Brain Injury: Unmasking and Addressing the Gaps","volume":"41","author":"Esopenko","year":"2024","journal-title":"J.
