Description

Although knowledge on affirming therapy for sexual and gender diverse people has expanded in recent decades, clinician lack accurate knowledge about the diverse relationship styles of this population related to forms of consensual non-monogamies (including swinging, polyamory and open relationships). With rapidly expanding literature on CNM relationships within LGBTQIA+ populations, insights on the individual and relational strengths of this population and emerging best practices in CNM-affirming clinical work will be explored to identify, nurture, and integrate these resources for flourishing into practice with CNM sexual and gender diverse clients.
