What did you enjoy about the SHA sex therapy certification program?

 

β€œSHA provides a comprehensive learning environment and experience that will be sure to surpass your wildest imagination. After finishing the program, I am for sure a better person and clinician. Not only does SHA offer an amazing curriculum, with online learning; but, they also offer in-house conferences with the top researchers and clinicians in their fields, but also study abroad programs, and they streamlined AASECT certification and supervision! What more could you ask for?!”  - Jennifer, 2023 SHA Sex Therapy Certification Graduate


β€œAs a relatively young post-menopausal person due to cancer treatment, I was REALLY appreciative of the content about sex and aging and sex and illness, but I wanted more. I kept telling my husband, "holy sh**, it's US!" So... that's why I did my capstone about it, lol. As for everything else, I look forward to continuing to attend conferences, and I don't know what else I'd add that you're not already actively addressing. Good job!” - Stephanie, 2023 SHA Sex Therapy Certification Graduate


β€œThe Sexual Health Alliance has impacted my life and career in the most wondrous ways. I am now a certified Sex Therapist and I feel competent and full of progressive and inclusive sex-positive knowledge. I loved the journey so much that I am now part of the Consensual Non-Monogamy certification program and it’s just as amazing. The community at SHA was so kind, helpful, and supportive for anything I ever needed. I’ll be a part of the SHA community for life.” - Fox, 2023 SHA Sex Therapy Certification Graduate

 

What do you plan to use your SHA sex therapy certification for? 

 

β€œI just graduated with my masters in Dec 2022 & specialize in couples & sex therapy. I plan to use my knowledge to help couples & individuals with their sex lives - but to also feel normal & validated.” - Jennifer, 2023 SHA Sex Therapy Certification Graduate


β€œIncorporating sex therapy into my practice has already been amazing. Sexuality is a universal experience of self and culture, and too many people are afraid to talk about it! Not realizing my specialty, some clients have even apologized for bringing it up, asking if their concerns are TMI. Across the board, they've expressed relief to know that my office is a safe space to unpack their concerns, whether sexual or related to gender identity.” - Stephanie, 2023 SHA Sex Therapy Certification Graduate


β€œSex therapy! I have several speaking engagements set up already where I'll be speaking on Polyamory as "The Polyamory Therapist" and I'm writing a book too!” - Fox, 2023 SHA Sex Therapy Certification Graduate

 

How was your overall experience during the sex therapy certification journey? 

 

β€œI loved this experience so much. I also cannot wait to continue my learning experience because there's so much more to learn! This has truly been amazing! I can't wait for my future!” - Jennifer, 2023 SHA Sex Therapy Certification Graduate


β€œI really appreciated the breadth of the program, and I appreciate the ongoing efforts to update content to include diverse voices and perspectives. The conferences were all amazing, and I honestly couldn't pick a favorite.” - Stephanie, 2023 SHA Sex Therapy Certification Graduate

β€œI loved it so much. I love Dr. David Ley and the Jet Setting Jasmine recordings and especially modules 3 and 4. I love the community on Facebook and even joined a consultation group with my SHA colleagues.” - Fox, 2023 SHA Sex Therapy Certification Graduate
