About The Training

Join us for an introductory level training designed to teach clinicians the basics of talking about sex and intimacy with clients. This training provides the foundational knowledge necessary to work with clients on issues related to sex, intimacy after sexual trauma, sexual identity and gender identity. Topics include pleasure inclusivity, queer sex and identities, non-monogamy and kink. Through group discussion and peer exchange, participants will receive the practical skills needed to navigate professional boundaries and encourage authentic conversations about clients' sexual questions and concerns.
