When Porn Is The Issue: Working with Couples & Individuals
Title of Event: When Porn Is The Issue: Working with Couples & Individuals
When couples are in conflict about porn, the most common clinical approach pathologizes the porn consumer while legitimizing the other partner’s grievances. This violates our commitment to neutrality. More importantly, it doesn’t help the couple.
To help us work more effectively with such cases, this webinar focuses on treating intrapsychic conflicts, power struggles, and existential issues relating to porn use and sexuality.

Title of Event: Moving Beyond Safety: Solidarity, Mutual Entanglement, and Erotic Embodiment

Advanced Clinical Sexology Course
Title of Event: Advanced Clinical Sexology Course
This course fills in all the holes left from a graduate education that ignored the need for a solid basic education in clinical sexology for the health provider. Our clients/patients come to us expecting that we know these basics and assume we've been trained - but the vast majority of us have not. We, like them, not only did not receive comprehensive sex education when we grew up, but our graduate education, at best provided us with one or two very limited courses in sexuality.
