Desire Discrepancy through an Asexual Lens

Title: Desire Discrepancy through an Asexual Lens

Date: May 12, 2023, 12 pm MDT - 2:00 pm MDT

Location: online synchronous 

Description:
One of the most common challenges that couples bring to therapy is the Desire Discrepancy. You probably have a lot of experience with this challenge and an array of tools and therapeutic techniques to support these couples in nurturing desire and arousal. But what do you do if one of your clients is Asexual? What if nurturing desire and arousal is not actually affirming for your clients? Join Aubri Lancaster and Molly Adler to discuss assessment techniques, DSM criteria, the influence of dominant cultural narratives, biases, and making space for affirming relationship models and practices.
This training will be recorded. If you don't want your voice to be recorded, you can always use the chat during the event. Only the speaker and slides will be visually recorded.
Are you hoping to just watch the recording? While some of this training is definitely experiential, we will be recording and you'll have access to watch for 90 days after the event. CE credit is available for asynchronous attendance.
