ONLINE: Kink and Spirituality for Mental Health Professionals

with Lee Harrington

This class centers the learning needs of therapists, educators, & helping professionals. We break down what gets called kink, the differences between faith, sacred experience, & spiritual paths, allowing us to better serve the concerns clients have.

Description

When a client comes to therapists, educators, or helping professionals around the intersection of kink and spirit, they are coming to YOU. You don’t have to understand the nuances of kink to serve your clientele! In this presentation we will break down the basics of what gets called kink, as well as the differences between faith, sacred experience, and spiritual paths, allowing us to better serve some of the actual concerns clients might have. There are many ways in which kink mirrors spirituality, spirituality mirrors kink, and consciously combining them can help our clients. Whether they have had unexpected sacred moments amidst taboo sexual expression or fear the loss of community if they come “out” as having diverse desires, no two people are the same, so let’s break it down and add nuance to your understanding on these topics.

This class centers the learning needs of therapists, educators, and helping professionals, but is open to attendees of all sorts. This is not a class on the specifics of different religions or spiritual paths and their intersections with kink practices.

This will be a live, online class offered through Zoom. No on-site tickets will be available.
