Queer-a slur reclaimed, made beautiful and full of pride. A word that encompasses many identities and expressions. What does it mean to be a therapist working with queer sexualities?
This course aims to pull apart what we think we know. We will identify ways the gender binary sneaks into therapy rooms and how to undo the stereotypes that come with it. We will explore sexualities that exist at the edges of straight society’s understanding including BDSM and Consensual Non-Monogamy. We will define the importance of the therapy room as a space that welcomes the parts of us that are outside of what society mandates and process the therapist’s role in creating space and support for queerness to emerge.
