COUN-5182: Human Sexuality: Foundations in Counseling Gender and Sexual Minorities

In this course we will discuss how to broach topics of sex, sexual and affectual identity expressions, gender, erotic template and relational structures with our clients. We will learn how to integrate LGBTQIAKIP+affirming care into our work as mental health counselors and when to refer out to specialists like sex therapists. Students can expect to explore the socio-political history of both queer and trans* liberation movements with respect to mental health care; discuss anti-oppressive, intersectional developmental models of sexual and gender identity and expression; promote awareness of growth-edges and biases in service of becoming a GSM-affirming and sex affirming practitioner; and introduce you to GSM-affirming practice and theory within clinical mental health counseling settings.
