Ethical Considerations with Sexually Marginalized Clients
🗓️ Wednesday, Feb 11, 2026 | 🕐 1:00–4:15pm ET | 🎓 3 Ethics or Core CEs
👉 Register: https://www.theknowledgetree.org/p/sexually-marginalized-clients-ethics

Consensual non-monogamy. B**M and consensual power exchange. Diverse sexual desires and behaviors.
These are far more common than many clinicians realize — yet misunderstandings, stigma, and outdated clinical assumptions still show up in therapy rooms every day.

This ethics-focused workshop helps clinicians replace bias with competence, and discomfort with clarity.

You’ll explore:
✨ How to understand sexual and relational diversity outside heterocentric, monocentric, and binary norms
✨ Strategies for assessing power dynamics in relationships — both inherent and consensually negotiated
✨ How therapist paperwork (intake forms, language, documentation) can either harm or empower clients
✨ APA calls to action around stigma reduction
✨ Ethical principles for working with sexually marginalized populations
✨ Approaches to informed consent, safety planning, and duty to protect
✨ How to signal a sex-positive, affirming clinical environment — in person and online

This is the training clinicians wish they’d had years ago — an essential update to support autonomy, justice, and nonmaleficence in modern practice.
