Working with sexual and gender diverse clients, with Josh Muller.

This week's episode takes a look at working with diversity, in particular with LGBTQIA+ people. The way we communicate is important, it doesn't just communicate the content of what we're doing, it communicates our beliefs and assumptions about the world.  I hope this episode gives you some ideas and tips on how to be more inclusive in your practice. This is a real area of need and we know the stats are alarming for people especially young people if they don't get the right support when they need it. Stigma, fear, and judgment can prevent someone from getting help.    Josh Muller (they/them) is a registered psychologist passionate about LGBTQIA+ health and well-being. While specialising in gender, sex, and sexuality, they work across the lifespan and a broad range of issues affecting their client’s lives.  Josh is a great resource and shares some of their tips on how you can be more inclusive, things you can do in your practice, and recommends some resources you can look at if you’d like to learn more. Josh shares advice on how to be more comfortable talking about sexuality and diversity.  They encourage you to interrogate your own understanding of things and reflect on your ideas and values of gender and sexuality,  Resources https://www.melbournequeerpsychologist.com/  https://www.queersexed.org/ Join the Inside Social Work Facebook Group Join the Inside Social Work Podcast mailing list to get your free social work career guide Visit the website for the latest info and show notes https://insidesocialwork.com/ Support the show by making a contribution https://www.paypal.me/Insidesocialwork Subscribe to the podcast      Mentioned in this episode:5 Days to Career Clarity in Social WorkReflect, plan, and take your next step with confidence.
