Event Description
Join AASECT Certified Sex Therapist and Supervisor Estefanía Simich Muñoz for a workshop exploring intersectionality (e.g., culture, religion, migration, intergenerational teachings) in sex therapy. Through a mix of lecture, self-reflection, and break out groups, Dr. Simich Muñoz provides a safe space to explore your own intersectionality, ways of approaching cases, and practical skills to use with diverse groups of clients in sex therapy.
Dr. Simich Muñoz guides participants in examining their own intersectionality by reflecting on how intersectionality impacts their own perception of sex therapy and how they can navigate their own identity when working with sex therapy cases. Dr. Simich Muñoz guides participants to reflect on their own biases and the challenges they encounter when working with clients from a different background than their own. Dr. Simich Muñoz also demonstrates how to use an intersectional lens to conceptualize sex therapy cases and shares best practices for working with clients from diverse backgrounds.
