Visual Journaling as a Therapeutic Intervention
Presented by Alexis Rae Burrow, LPCC-S
1 CE
Visual Journaling is a creative exploration of the internal world. It is a way to record one’s unique inner worlds as they can be experienced in colors, shapes or images. Visual Journaling allows one to create what cannot be described in words and access different areas of the brain to process one’s own struggles. The act of visual journaling allows us as practitioners to see how an individual internally experiences emotions. In this seminar we will discuss setting up a visual journal using basic materials. We will explore the roots of visual journaling and how it came into our therapeutic world. We will discuss how to approach specific journaling activities in ways that empower clients to express their internal world rather than feel pressured to create art. This is an interactive seminar where participants will participate in their own visual journal entry in order to conceptualize how to utilize visual journaling in their own practice.

Low Libido or Desire Discrepancy
Presented by Alexis Rae Burrow, LPCC-S and Heather Sexton, LPC
2 CEs
Low libido is one of the biggest concerns cisgender women bring to health-care providers in and outside of the therapy room. Often, evidence shows, cis women who struggle with low libido don't reveal their struggle unless directly asked. Much of the research on this topic is lacking in gender diversity and other cultural implications. Another problem is, very few clinicians have any training on how to recognize and especially treat low libido. This training will equip therapists with ways to identify this common sexual concern. You will leave this training being able to assess and intervene with evidence-based interventions for this common sexual issue.
