All the Feels (We Might Not Feel): A Welcoming Intro to Asexual and Aromantic Spectrums

Description

What if not everyone is chasing “the one”? What if some people just aren’t that into… anyone? In a culture that treats romance and sex like inevitable life milestones, asexual and aromantic folks are often left out of the conversation or forgotten entirely. For professionals and students looking to expand their inclusive practice, this workshop will unpack common myths, explore the diversity of ace and aro spectrums, and examine what arises in the therapy room when clients don't experience sexual or romantic attraction. We’ll also dig into how these identities intersect with other lived experiences—like race, body size, disability, and gender—and why culturally competent care means not mistaking difference for dysfunction. No prior knowledge required—just curiosity and compassion.
