Online Institute: Working with the Impact of Power and Privilege on Early Longing, Emotional Engagement, and Sexual Desire with Katie L. Griffin, MA, LPC, CGP, AGPA-F
Group members bring internal templates which, when combined with societal expectations, dictate and restrict the expression of longing, emotional connection, gender and sexual desire. Such internal templates are formed under conditions in group members' families, and in the larger systems of power and privilege, impacting each person differently based on their identities. When the group leader helps expand these templates, group members develop more fluidity, breadth of identity, and depth of connection to themselves and others.
