COUN 561 Intro to Sexual Wellness in Counseling

Prerequisites: COUN 501, COUN 504 and COUN 511; or permission of instructor

This course will be largely experiential and will include several modes of learning including small group discussions, large group discussions, case examples, and PowerPoint. The seminar course is designed to give master’s students in clinical mental health counseling an introduction to sexual issues that will inevitably be presented in sessions with clients. Students will practice hearing about and discussing sexual issues while also gaining the tools needed to show genuine care, compassion, and nonjudgmental feedback to clients. This course does not aim to teach students how to treat sexual concerns, but rather is aimed at giving them the tools to feel comfortable and confident discussing sexual topics with clients, as necessary.
