Sexuality is a vital part of human identity, yet many clients struggle to bring it into therapy—and many therapists feel unprepared to welcome it. This workshop introduces the PLISSIT and EX-PLISSIT models, practical frameworks that help therapists address sexual health with clarity, confidence, and sensitivity.
Participants will:
Demystify the therapist’s role in making space for clients’ sexuality within the therapeutic process.
Explore the importance of sexual health across the lifespan through the expanded EX-PLISSIT model.
Understand how non-sex therapists serve as frontline providers and gatekeepers for sexual health and growth.
Learn strategies to foster open, non-judgmental dialogue with clients around sexuality and sexual health.
Discover how therapists can help clients move toward healthier, more satisfying sexual lives.
Receive a curated resource list for continued professional development in sexual health.
