There are a total of 3 CEs for this course. Both sessions must be attended to receive the 3 CEs. NO recording. Islam and Muslim Americans have deep historical roots in North America. Muslim identities, beliefs and practices are rich and diverse. Sexuality and pleasure are central in Islam and yet misinformation and misperception are rampant often ignoring the dynamism of the faith tradition and practices among Muslims in general. Modern day American Muslims are experiencing unique challenges that require a nuanced approach to understanding the intersections of their cultures, faith tradition, sexuality and pleasure. This engaging and reflective workshop will explore how to support and meet the needs of Muslim clients in the therapeutic realm and in healing spaces from a value-based, culturally-centered and spiritually-grounded approach. These topics will be explored to deconstruct the orientalist gaze and colonial approaches. There will be opportunity for questions and answers regarding creation of therapeutic environments that limit re-traumatization of Muslim clients. Learning Outcomes:At the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:A) explore and assess intersections of culture, race, spirituality and sexuality from an Islamic perspectiveB) understand the Islamic view as it pertains to sexuality, pleasure and mental healthC) understand Islamophobia and its adverse effects on the mental health and sexuality Target Audience: This workshop is for clinicians in a mental health field and/or clinicians in-training who are seeking to disrupt and dismantle cycle(s) of oppression as it pertains to clinical work and systems.
