We are excited to host our guest presenter, Lance Madow, LPC for this creative new form of therapy.
There is a significant love for all things geek and nerd culture within the LGBTQIA+ community, one that is often misunderstood and underappreciated. As these interests are growing in acceptance and included in popular media, so are the ways that people begin to see themselves represented and can explore who they are through the actions of characters. Classic tropes in media can also be impactful for queer and transgender individuals in identifying how they feel they should show up in society, both negative and positive, which can influence identity formation. In this training, we'll be discussing some of the major characters your queer, transgender, and gender expansive clients may identify with, the different ways they utilize geeky interests to connect with aspects of their identities, and how they take can take an active role in creating their sense of identity through geek media.
Please select admission type to receive CE credit or to attend without CE credit. CE credit will be applicable to clinicians licensed in Georgia only.
This workshop is pending approval for 3 CORE CE hours for Social Workers and Professional Counselors licensed in Georgia. Please be aware that CE credit will be approved for clinicians licensed in Georgia only. Synchronous credit will be available for professional counselors and social workers in GA. Asynchronous CE credit will only be available for social workers licensed in GA.
