Practical, Specific Ways to Integrate Discussion of Sex Issues into Your Therapy Practice

In cooperation with It's Complicated and together with our dear colleague Naomi Painter we will dive into the topic of

Practical, Specific Ways to Integrate Discussion of Sex Issues into Your Therapy Practice.

Most therapists feel nervous about bringing up sex with clients. Many clients don't even know they are "allowed" to talk about sex in therapy, or feel too embarrassed to bring it up. We can change that. This presentation will teach Martha Kauppi's simple, memorable framework for opening conversations about sex in therapy and knowing what to do next. You'll learn 1) how to communicate in ways that reduce shame and create trust, 2) an easy assessment tool you can use immediately, and 3) when to refer while staying in your scope of practice. No specialized training needed, most clients with sex issues don't need a specialist, they just need a therapist who's comfortable talking about it.
