When it comes to sex, the definition of “mainstream” is changing – fast – and clients are disclosing new relationship and life issues in therapy that weren’t on the radar 5 years ago:
These situations and countless more are walking into therapists’ offices every day, and most therapists have no training, resources, or guidance on how to conceptualize or treat these issues.
In this seminar we will delve into how tech, media, and social changes affect modern sexuality, relationships, and mental health. Guidance on assessment, intervention, and treatment planning is given with lively, entertaining, and exciting real-world examples and case studies to help prevent over-pathologization of sexual behaviors, just because they’re new, misunderstood, or scary. Therapists will learn to support their clients in developing sexual integrity through self-understanding and acceptance.
