Have you ever wanted to increase your skills when working with LGBTQIA+ clients, partners and their families?

Would you like support in seeing how to better support your queer and transgender clients? This training is appropriate for all clinicians, regardless of their current skills and case conceptualization of working with these clients. We will work together to build your competency and confidence to best support the LGBTQIA+ communities. No matter where you are in your personal or professional journey, this training will not only enhance your practice, but your life.

In this experiential and interactive workshop, mental health professionals will develop deeper knowledge of how to support their LGBTQIA+ clients, colleagues, friends, selves and/or become better allies.

You will learn to be more knowledgeable and comfortable working with people in these various communities. This training will utilize lectures, clinical case conceptualizations, interactive discussions and first person lived experiences. Asher will help you move from a place of concept and theory to more confidence and knowledge that will create lasting change for you and your clients.
