Reclaiming Sex & Intimacy After Trauma
Saturday, January 23rd | 11am-1pm PST/ 2pm-4pm EST
2 HR ONLINE WORKSHOP
*Please note that this workshop is open to survivors of sexual & domestic violence, their loved ones, and folks who are interested in providing care in these intersections.
Description:
Moving from surviving to thriving is not easy.
For some, this means a reclamation of their sensual & sexual relationships with self and others.
Guilt. Shame. Anger. Numbness. Overwhelm. Despair. For many, these are huge obstacles getting in the way of us connecting to our body-based pleasure as well as to connecting with others.
If you are ready to do this reclamation work- this gathering is for you!
This workshop will be speaking to and centering survivors and consists of a slideshow presentation, group discussion, and participants will receive a detailed handout outlining the steps discussed in the presentation.
*Survivors will be invited to participate in the group discussion (optional!) and folks will NOT be asked to disclose their experiences of trauma.
