Description

Becoming a Kink Aware Therapist by Caroline Shahbaz and Peter Chirinos provides an essential introduction to the culture and practice of BDSM. Drawing on current research and ethnographic narratives from the kink community, this book aims to de-pathologize BDSM practices and offer practical ways to distinguish abuse from consent. The authors address common misconceptions surrounding BDSM, highlighting specific therapeutic concerns and presenting concrete strategies for therapists working with clients who engage in BDSM activities. Rich case studies are included to support these suggestions, making this book a valuable resource for anyone seeking to better understand and work with individuals within the kink community. By providing a nuanced understanding of BDSM and its complexities, this book belongs on the shelf of every therapist seeing BDSM and kink clients.
