Paraphilias can be complex and often misunderstood—but accurate assessment is key to effective and ethical treatment. In this training, Dr. Nikole Nassen guides clinicians in distinguishing between atypical sexual interests and paraphilic disorders, clarifying when these interests become clinically or risk-relevant. Participants will learn practical strategies for assessment and treatment, from helping clients manage paraphilic interests and behaviors to incorporating trauma-informed approaches, safety planning, and pharmacological options. Real-world case examples and a sex-positive, evidence-based framework will help clinicians apply these insights in practice.

Justice-involved clients often face the dual challenges of substance use and complex life circumstances. In this engaging webinar, Dr. Séan Foy introduces Solution-Focused Harm Reduction (SFHR)—a compassionate integration of harm reduction’s pragmatic, nonjudgmental stance with Solution-Focused Therapy’s strengths-based, goal-oriented approach. Participants will learn how this innovative framework fosters respectful, collaborative relationships that emphasize clients’ goals, possibilities, and existing strengths—whether or not abstinence is the outcome. Dr. Foy will demonstrate practical ways to apply SFHR to support individuals struggling with substance use or other high-risk behaviors, helping professionals enhance engagement and achieve more meaningful, sustainable results.

This training with Dr. Alex Rodrigues explores the growing influence of the “manosphere”—a network of online communities and influencers shaping young men’s views on masculinity, gender, and self-worth.

With a focus on practical, evidence-based strategies, Dr. Rodrigues will equip professionals to recognize harmful narratives and help clients build healthier, more compassionate understandings of masculinity grounded in empathy, accountability, and respect.

During this eight-hour training, Katie Gotch, LPC, CCSOT, ATSA-F, provides an overview of the development and research of the STABLE-2007 and ACUTE-2007 instruments. She explains how to score each of the measures’ items, as well as their appropriate interpretation and use within varying settings. This includes recent guidance on the use of these tools with individuals convicted of child sexual abuse material-related offenses (CSAM). To enhance learning, case studies are incorporated to provide hands-on practice and to address common scoring and administration errors.
