Class 1
10:00 AM - 1:00 PM EST
This 3-hour CE training explores how attachment dynamics and cultural or religious beliefs shape individuals’ experiences of sexual desire—particularly in relational contexts. The first half delves into attachment theory, offering a clinical understanding of how different attachment styles influence desire and arousal. The second half examines how sociocultural and religious narratives, especially those centered around sexual obligation, affect women’s sexual autonomy and pleasure. Through a culturally sensitive and trauma-informed lens, therapists will learn strategies to help clients (individuals and couples) untangle internalized messages about sex and foster a shift from obligation-based intimacy to authentic, connected desire.
