This is an opportunity to learn more about the increasing number of people identifying as gender diverse. This includes people identifying as transgender, non-binary and gender fluid whose experience of gender doesn’t meet the expectations of our society. Participants will learn about the unique challenges faced by clients seeking to achieve mind-body congruence as they explore their gender identity and the treatment available to them.
Participants will gain a better understanding of gender variance and gender dysphoria including the social and medical process people may go through.
This is an emerging client group and practitioners may feel curious, interested, anxious or that the presenting issues are beyond their experience to work with. We will explore our own thoughts and feelings about gender identity.
The course will be a mixture of didactic teaching, experiential learning, reflective discussion and small group work. It is suitable for those who have qualified and those who are still in training.
A Link Centre Certificate in Working with Gender Diversity will be presented at the end of the course.
The course is held online over 6 half days, 10-1pm on Friday mornings in February and March. Feb: 5th,12th, 19th, 26th and March 5th and 12th.
