A Two-Day Experiential Workshop for Mental Health Professionals with Tracey L.Post, MSW & Yvette R Murry, MSW

Description:
Issues of sex and sexuality are ubiquitous in life and psychotherapy . Still, many of us - even the seasoned among us - feel awkward or untrained in dealing with sex and sexual themes in our practices creating a safe psychological space for sexual ideas to emerge or in helping our clients with sexual problems. This two-day experiential workshop gives participants the opportunity to examine their sexual values and attitudes in a confidential setting, and to share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences with professional colleagues. Participants should be aware that they will be exposed to explicit sexual material. 

Cost:
$350
