Course Description:
Sexual health is an extremely underrepresented field within the world of social work. Participants in this course will follow the treatment process - from intake to termination - while learning at least two new assessment strategies, multiple intervention methods, best practices for ethical dilemmas, provider biases and how to ethically work with/through them, and engagement strategies for communicating as an affirming provider of sexual health. Participants of this course will take away direct dialogue pertaining to affirming consent, provider and client boundary setting, strategies to work with the DSM-5 diagnoses, and multicultural considerations to invite in the room. This workshop aims to fill in the gaps other educational opportunities have not so as to prepare all participants with empowerment when working with client sexual health concerns.
