Join SHA for Valentine’s Weekend!

*Special Online Valentine’s SAR for Couples & Partner(s)*

Valentine’s Weekend SAR: Couple’s Edition!

Singles, solos, table for one, partnered but unaccompanied, solo poly learners etc are all welcome!

Join us online for this SPECIAL EDITION OF A SEXCEPTIONAL SAR! Relationships and spouses are often left out of trainings and we believe this is a huge misstep! When you’re training to become a sexuality professional, you change. You learn and explore new parts of yourself. Your relationship with your sexuality changes as well as the sex you’re having with others. We challenge you to bring your partner(s) along with you in some of this journey. Take this important step in your development and grow your relationship at the same time!

Join us for this COUPLE’s SAR with Dr. David Ley alongside a few special guests including Heather McPherson for a special AASECT-approved SAR (10 AASECT CEs) with breakout sessions, small group dialogues and interactive learning.

We will engage in several activities that we hope will challenge your beliefs, values and biases associated with sexuality. Experiential activities, small breakout groups and large group discussion will all be included within the weekend.

Limited spaces! Reserve your spot today!

This is a dynamic, experiential weekend that provides a real life opportunity for educators, counselors and therapists to get back in touch with their beliefs and attitudes toward various aspects of human sexuality. Participants will be exposed to material in different formats (media, experiential exercises, group discussions, role-plays, etc.) and will be given a safe and supportive environment to discuss their reflections. There will be self reflection time as well as guided small group discussions. 

SCHEDULE

Friday, February 12th 7PM - 9PM (Central Standard Time)

Saturday, February 13th 10AM - 6PM (Central Standard Time)

WHAT IS A SAR?

SAR, if provided in an authentic, skillful and holistic way, is not just another training that you attend, it will be a life changing experience. Many of the SAR participants will remain friends and supportive colleagues for life through this shared journey.

A SAR is a structured group experience consisting of a process-oriented exploration of the applicant's own feelings, attitudes, values, and beliefs regarding human sexuality and sexual behavior [e.g., a Sexuality Attitude Reassessment (SAR)].

A SAR is a tremendous experience of learning and growth for therapists, educators, medical professionals or anyone interested in expanding and challenging their sexual self awareness.
