Working with Men, Masculinity, and Masculine Social Scripts

Title of Event: Working with Men, Masculinity, and Masculine Social Scripts

Description of Event:

This course is open to all sexuality professionals. It is required for those completing the EDST Sex Therapy Certification.

Men are receiving mental health treatment more than ever before, and as the stigma around therapy continues to decrease, care providers need tools and support for how to navigate the dehumanizing expectations that surround “being a man.” Working with Men, Masculinity, and Masculine Social Scripts is for progressive professionals who want to cut through the noise of patriarchy to make a lasting impact with their male clients.

During this workshop, attendees will explore the social and sexual scripts surrounding masculinity and how they inform the ways men navigate experiences of identity, pleasure, sex, and shame. Using personal reflection exercises, group processing, and group discussion, attendees will practice how to be present with and hold compassion for clients holding harmful attitudes about “manhood.” Attendees also will practice tools for managing their own reactions in real time.

By the end of this workshop, attendees will feel more equipped to work with male clients and challenge the beliefs and expectations that are so commonly attached to being a man
