Description
Our clients are often judged and sometimes even discriminated against for their sexual preferences. In this session, you’ll explore how you can work ethically with clients who engage in kink/BDSM.
Then Alessio will view kink/BDSM through the lens of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy model so you can master the use of parts work and explore the identities, biases, shames and desires in relation to kink/BDSM that may exist in both your clients and yourself.
CPD
