Almost everything in this presentation was new to me- I could use another session with this presenter. She was excellent and confident, so very knowledgable! Loved how she presented all of the elements of the case and demonstrated how the diagnostic process had gone awry in the past due to stigma and lack of awareness of kink and BDSM practice. She was great at explaining how she gathered the right info to have a good grasp on the context for the case discussed. I learned a lot! I learned that breath play is never "technically" safe, as well as elaboration on some distinctions within the BDSM acronym. I believe I have a new sensitivity towards clients with kink practices. I became aware of some implicit biases I hold. Presenter was so dynamic! Fantastic! Well Prepared. Well Informed. Bring them back! Appreciated the contract of consensual kink and abuse. Great workshop. Presenter engaged the audience, spoke clearly, and provided a lot of valuable information. Excellent and informative. Raised cultural awareness, diversity, ethical practice, ambiguity. Thank you! Learning objectives were achieves with great respect to all with an emphasis on not judging any of our clients/individuals. Seek understanding. Don't pathologize. Thanks! Well done, introspective and knowledgeable. Great presentation- very skilled presenter. Top notch! One of the best presentations (by far) I've ever attended. Kudos to NASW-MI for bringing in this presenter. Really applicable to issues going on at work, also will use personally Wish we had more time w/ her to hear more examples, details and questions Awesome Really well presented, loved the storytelling.

Held great value, wished she would have addressed more about how to share these tools w/my team.

Great presentation and information Wonderful presenter: Talks on nonviolent communication as highly valuable & Images from interpersonal thru organizational levels were helpful.
