Assessment and Diagnosis of S*xual Dysfunctions, Gender Dysphoria, and Paraphilic Disorders course is waiting on you to take it!

Whether you are working on becoming a more s*x positive provider or working towards AASECT Certification, this workshop will provide you with must have foundational skills! Together, we will learn the art of taking a s*xual health assessment that is affirming and trauma-informed. From there, we will break down the complexities of using the DSM-V-TR and the ICD-11 to define and diagnose S*xual Dysfunctions, Gender Dysphoria, and Paraphilic Disorders. Finally, we will expand these concepts across the gender spectrum, allowing providers to think beyond the binary and move from concepts of dysfunction and pathology towards pleasure, euphoria, and embodiment.
These skills are crucial when working with individuals and relationships as a therapist, health advocate, coach, surrogate partner, or healthcare professional. We cannot help folks unlock their pleasure if we cannot first understand their discomfort and pain.

We have many CE courses ready for you to explore, like Nick Marzo's S*x, S*xuality, and Recovery workshop.
For many clients, substance use is intertwined with their s*xual behavior and expression. The recovery process often overlooks the impact of sobriety on s*xual expression. This program will explore the relationship between s*x and substance use with an emphasis on methamphetamine and men who have s*x with men; review s*xual templates and scripts, how they are developed; assessing and overcoming the shame associated with high risk behaviors; integrating s*xual activity into the recovery plan, and tools for helping clients return to healthy s*xual interactions while in recovery.
This course will offer 3 AASECT and NBCC hours.
Cost: $90
