WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
BDSM (Bondage, Dominance/Submission, SadoMasochism) has been shown to be a boundary and power exchange; BDSM offers many pathways for relational and trauma healing. It can be an accessible, culturally appropriate, and fun supplement to traditional therapeutic work. In this workshop, you will learn about the neurobiological and relational effects of trauma, dissociation, and the attachment system.
You will develop an understanding of the core principles of BDSM, how to engage with BDSM culture, and how to connect BDSM strategies. Lastly, you will learn specific strategies and exercises to help your clients accomplish their clinical goals. The tools learned here are intended to be accessible across culture and economic status. We’ll discuss using these tools with individuals, couples, friend groups, and other social structures.
By the end of this training, clinicians will leave with a diverse toolbox for BDSM healing, along with the knowledge and cognitive frameworks to adapt these principles to their specific clinical populations.
WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES:
- Learn about the core principles of BDSM.
- Develop a basic understanding of the trauma and attachment systems.
- Identify how BDSM strategies can assist with specific clinical presentations.
