Description
Asexual adults have distinct cultural and clinical considerations that shape their mental health needs and responses to psychological interventions. This webinar draws on emerging empirical research and clinical practice recommendations to provide a framework for psychologists to integrate cultural competence into assessment and treatment with asexual clients. Participants will learn evidence-informed strategies for affirming asexual identities, addressing clinician assumptions, and tailoring interventions to support client autonomy and well-being. Clinical examples and practical recommendations for reflective practice and reducing bias will be included. The webinar aims to equip clinicians with skills to create more inclusive, culturally responsive care for asexual individuals across therapeutic contexts.
