Class Description
While intimate partner violence is a phenomenon that cuts across all socioeconomic demographics, assessing for and identifying such dynamics in BDSM relationships can be especially fraught.

Drawing on frameworks of coercive controlling violence, consent, power, and coercive controlling violence, this course is designed to help clinicians assess for abuse dynamics in BDSM while maintaining a client centered and Kink affirming disposition. Participants will learn to identify underlying power dynamics that may by coercive, multisystemic influences that can can protect or expose kinksters to coercive controlling violence, and how to bring these discussions into the therapy room.
