Description of Event:
Join therapist Jen Rosselli, LMHC in this 3 hour training where practitioners at any level can gain foundational information for discussing ethically non-monogamous relational dynamics with their clients.
This course will help familiarize you with common terminology used in the ethical non-monogamous (ENM) and polyamorous communities. You will learn to understand any potential biases we may be bringing into the therapeutic space and gain effective ways to be supportive of clients exploring relational experiences within ENM and polyamorous communities.
The format of this program will involve an online video lecture, an experiential exercise and time for questions. Please bring basic art supplies and paper (ie. sketchbook or blank paper, various colored markers, colored pencils, or your medium of choice for a 20-30 minute image-making exercise.)
Learning Objectives:
1. List at least three types of ethically non-monogamous (ENM) dynamics.
2. Identify at least three new ways of understanding attachment theory within ENM relational dynamics.
3. Explain the H.E.A.R.T.S. model developed by Jessica Fern.
4. Discuss how communication and consent play a role in ethically non-monogamous relationships.
5. Analyze how one’s internal experience may be affected by this paradigm shift and how this might show up in the therapeutic space.
6. Utilize resources for further exploration on the topic of ethical non-monogamy.
