Title of Event: Hacking Sex Toys: Creative Solutions for Disabled Sex

Description of Event:

Disabled sex can be tricky when we run into barriers, but disabled sex is also creative, restorative, exploratory, and vast in how it looks from person to person. This creates the perfect opportunity for re-defining what sex means and focus on person-centred hacks and adaptations to make sex more accessible for those with and without disabilities.

Title of Event: Problematized Bodies: How Our Physical Selves Shape Love, Work, & Identity

Description of Event:

No matter what people do, we do it in a body. That includes how we work, play, eat, parent, make love, think, feel, and die.

And so every patient’s body is part of the therapeutic process. Each week, you see patients struggling not just with illness, but with chronic pain, insomnia, limited mobility, loss of function, infertility, food allergies, sexual dysfunction, hidden disabilities, and weight problems. They also struggle with shame and isolation.
