SEX THERAPY TRAINING
Want to level up your skills as a practictioner?
After 20 years of clinical experience and the privilege of being taught by some of the best sex educators in the world, Tanya has developed training courses and master classes to share the knowledge she has gained with other practitioners.
Tanya’s training addresses issues often overlooked in therapy rooms, looks through a number of different critical lenses, and provides practical frameworks for practitioners to use with clients. She draws on each and every training she has done, the communities she works with, and an extensive trauma background to offer unique training that covers academic, somatic, and psychotherapeutic approaches. Tanya will give you the knowledge, language and confidence to cover important topics in our clients’ lives and relationships.
Courses are all approved and endorsed by PACFA, SAS and ACA and will count toward your CPD points.
There are four courses in the sex therapy field and one trauma-informed training for practitioners.
You can sign up for all four to receive a certificate in Sex Therapy Practice or choose courses to add skills in your areas of interest.
Along with these courses, Tanya has developed 90-minute master classes on some of the more common presenting issues in sex and relationship therapy. They are a steal at $150 each and packed full of useful, practical information .
