PSY-5930GH: Bisexual Affirmative Psychotherapy Affirmative Therapy in an Era of Sexual, Gender and Cultural Fluidity

This one-day workshop will explore the social and political context in which today’s counselors will provide affirmative therapy to bisexuals and others who identify as sexually fluid. Theories of bisexual identity development, myths about bisexuality, patterns of bisexuality, and post-modern concepts of sexual fluidity will be discussed. In addition, bisexual mental health issues will be examined in the context of their intersections with gender fluidity and cultural diversity. Workshop participants will explore ways of providing bi-affirmative therapy that is trans-affirmative and culturally competent. This workshop will incorporate both didactic instruction and experiential learning opportunities.
