Presentations

AAESECT 2009

Thomas has been invited by the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT) to present 2 workshops at this years conference in May. This conference is in Glendale/Pheonix, AZ and Thomas will be co-presenting the workshops "Differentiating a Path to Maximum Pleasure" and "Creating a New Model for Working with Gender-Variant Clients: Applying Person-Centered and Narrative Therapies." AASECT is the certifying body for all sexologists in the United States and selection for conference presentation is a huge honor for any sexpert at all points in their career. Below is a picture of me (lower center) at last year's AASECT Conference in New Orleans, LA where I was awarded the Student Poster Award for my poster "Differentiating the Gay Man's Experience of Prostate Cancer."
