Non-Monogamy and Kink 101: An Overview for Clinicians (Webinar)
Summary
Learn about the basics of kink play, how consent is discussed and negotiated, the difference between all the terms, and what it means to be in a 24-7 relationship. Understand the differences between fantasy (like 50 Shades of Grey) and reality, and how to support clients/patients in their kink practices. There will also be a basic training on the basic types of consensually non-monogamous relationships that people have in their lives, how to support individuals in discussing these with frameworks with clients, and more. We'll talk about polyamory/non-monogamy -- various facets, how to get into it, and most importantly, how to help make it work when there are more than two people involved. Whether you're looking to learn something new, or just to add some knowledge to support your therapeutic or medical practice, this is a great overview for anyone.
Identify basic tenets of kink including consent, role play, power exchange, pain play, establish limits and safe words, and analyze how to use this information in practice.
Describe various frameworks of consensual non-monogamy including polyamory, polyfidelity, and swinging, and interpret how to connect this knowledge to practice.
