Description:
This seven-hour course will offer practitioners a solid foundation for working with neurodivergent clients, inclusive of all types of gender and sexual expression. The course encourages self-reflection on a range of topics within the neurodiversity therapy framework, including stigma, biases, and models of consent. Each hour will feature a new learning objective, including topical slides, input from self-advocates, videos, and activities to encourage contemporary approaches to working clients who may learn differently and experience relationships and sexuality in a variety of ways that, for many practitioners, has been previously unconsidered.
