tPCA GSRD Conference: Queerness in the Person-Centred Approach
A one-day conference at Coventry University aimed at looking at various aspects of working with GSRD identities from within a person-centred framework.
Plan for the day
The conference opens with introductions and will then move to an encounter space - tPCA has run an encounter group for people identifying as GSRD/queer in some way for a couple of years now, and what we know from this is that the space often feels qualitatively different to non-GSRD spaces, and that many counsellors have never had this experience. We want to open this up to all attendees to experience.
After this, we will move to our Keynote presentation:
Therapist encounters with autistic trans people (Sam Hope) followed by lunch.
After lunch attendees have the option of choosing from three presentations:
Origin story, Non-sexual adult babies or Sex workers.
The final session of the day will be a panel discussion based on our reflections of the day and our understandings of GSRD and the PCA.
