CLINICAL CONSULTATION
Often, therapists have a robust therapeutic alliance with their client, and then realize their client needs some guidance in the realms of sexual health, sexual dysfunction, problematic use of erotic materials, gender dysphoria, or LGBTQ+ concerns generally, to name a few common areas of interest. We cannot be an expert in all areas of practice, and it is our ethical responsibility to get our clients expert care. Rather than disrupting the good work we are doing with a client when new concerns arise that are out of our wheelhouse, we can work to educate ourselves in the matter at hand.
WHO DO I CONSULT with?
Maybe you are a physician, midwife, physical therapist, primary care provider, or other health professional who has a patient who has expressed a sexual practice (kink/fetish) with which you are not familiar; perhaps you believe your patient's clinical presentation may have some psychological etiology to explore; or, maybe a new patient has a gender of sexual configuration that you wish to understand more deeply. All of these topics and more are common areas of consultation.
WHAT TO EXPECT
I am available for 60 minute consults at a rate of $100 via phone or video for a single provider. You can expect practical, immediately applicable practice suggestions, as well as a follow-up email to any relevant research. I am also available for training to residents, care teams, grand rounds, and other groups within practice settings. Please contact me to collaborate on getting your group continuing education needs met.
