Further Details:

This Workshop will endeavour to explore the difficulties and conflicts that arise in the therapeutic framework when the client’s presentation is coming from a place where their sexuality is in direct conflict with their cultural or religious background.

The workshop will seek to offer a space for practitioners to explore their own experiences in working with clients from different ethnic backgrounds to their own. 

Providing a brief overview of both liberal and conservative approaches to sexual orientation by the major world religions we will aim to explore ways in which therapists can be more empathic to the cultural and religious conflicts that clients face.
