The Evolution and Impact of Pornography on Sexuality​ & Relationships

This course explores how pornography has evolved across time and technology and how it influences modern sexuality, relationships, and sexual expectations. Participants will examine common sexual scripts shaped by porn, consider ethical and cultural factors, and develop a nuanced understanding of both potential benefits and challenges associated with porn use. The training also supports clinicians in having thoughtful, non-shaming conversations about pornography, helping clients navigate their experiences in ways that align with their values, relationships, and overall wellbeing.

Matt & Julie will be teaching this course.
