This training will explore the developmental implications of adolescence and sexuality, and sexual health. During the training, communication approaches on tough subjects such as internet safety, safe sex, pregnancy, and conversations with family members will be addressed. This training is ideal for all mental health professionals and students—particularly individuals who work with or plan to work with teenagers or parents/caregivers.

Participants will walk away from this presentation knowing how to navigate conversations surrounding sexual health for adolescence and how to provide resources and support tools to teens and their families.

The resources offered in this program will provide mental health professionals with communication tools and resources to help strengthen their practice. Training programs on the subject of adolescence and sexuality in the mental health field are limited in the counseling-specific profession. This program will offer educational resources to participants interested in growing their knowledge of sexual health for adolescents.

This program is developed using a multicultural lens. All aspects of this program embed clinical considerations for professionals working with ethnic, racial, religious, gender, and sexually-diverse, and socioeconomically diverse populations. Additionally, both presenters work from brave pedagogies, encouraging participants to feel safe to address topics surrounding social justice issues that clients and professionals may face.
