Dear SASQLD members,

We are very excited to announce that SASQLD will be holding our first Professional Development and Peer Supervision event for 2023 on Wednesday 8th February and you are all warmly invited.

"SAS Accreditation Process" plus Q&A time

Date:

Wednesday 8th February

Time:

7pm - 8pm Professional Development presentation followed by

8pm - 9pm Peer Supervision group session

Venue:

New Farm Library Meeting Room #1 and

Online via Zoom (link provided with registration)

We encourage all SASQLD members to come along to this event and learn about the processes and benefits of becoming an accredited SAS member.

The Society of Australian Sexologists (SAS) provides an accreditation pathway for sexologists wanting to work as a psychosexual therapist or sexuality educator. The accreditation standards of the Society are comparable to the standards set by such international accreditation bodies as American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT) in the United States, and the College of Sexual and Relationships Therapists (COSRT) in the United Kingdom. The Society offers accreditation at the standards of Clinical and Provisional. Self-regulation through accreditation ensures a higher level of professionalism in psychosexual therapy and sexuality education.

This Professional Development presentation will be followed by a one hour peer Group Supervision session for current practicing therapists. SASQLD Supervision Guidelines will be provided for those who register for this event.

Come along and meet some of the sexologists in your state and learn together in a warm, inclusive community.

Warmly,

Armin, Kate, Catherine and Sarah.
