Each spring quarter, we offer a 10-week clinical rotation focused on providing psychotherapy to students across the spectrum of gender and sexual identities. This rotation is designed for our pre-doctoral psychology interns, as well as for other clinicians on staff who wish to improve their competence in this area. The rotation tends to be interactive, engaging and unconventional in its teaching techniques. Topics covered include:
- queer theory and identity development
- queer history
- queer family building
- kink/BDSM
- consensual nonmonogamy/polyamory
- affirming language
- sexuality and faith
- trans identities
- interpersonal and sexual violence in queer relationships
- queer people of color
- bisexuality and pansexuality
If you are a health provider at Stanford and would like to improve your clinical and cultural competence working with gender and sexual diversity issues in your practice, please consider joining our Gender and Sexual Diversity Clinical Rotation.
