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.
This course, in 6 days, we will cover the most critical topics, taught to you by experts in medicine - uro-gynecology, urology, pelvic floor physical therapy, clinical sexology, sex therapy, sex education, neuro-diversity, diversity and inclusion, transgender medicine, marriage and family therapy, medical family therapy, and the kink community just to name a few. There are some asynchronous hours required in this course, that can be completed prior to course launch or afterwards.
This course will leave you equipped and confident to work with people with all kinds of backgrounds, all kinds of concerns, and seeking all kinds of guidance. It will also equip you to collaborate with other medical providers who might be working with your client/patient in a way that is truly supportive of them.
