About the Event

If I asked, “what you do for a living?” Each of you would have an understandably different response. For the sake of this presentation, let’s use the following as our job description. Our job is to help struggling people gain the needed insight, objectivity, resources and strength to improve their lives. Few among us would deny this. And yet, despite our sincere desire to help others grow, we miss things. We forget an important assessment questions, we double book or forget to update treatment plans. No big deal, we are not perfect,

But what happens when we miss out important assessment pieces due to our discomfort or lack of knowledge? What if SEX (never discussed) is at the heart of the clients’ concern, but they are too ashamed to bring it up Sexual problems and fears are the least likely issues our clients will bring to us likely due to how they perceive we might respond. Thus. the focus of this talk, SEX. Do you feel comfortable/knowledgeable enough to evaluate your clients’ sexual lives? Are your initial assessments inclusive of a sexual history? When clients generate concerns related to sexual fetishism, porn addiction, gender identity, gender expression and child porn, what do you do? This discussion is meant to help clinicians become better at what they do.

Live Event This is a live online event. It will be conducted via Zoom Webinar.
