🔵Trust is the first ingredient in effective care. How can you be honest with your provider if you're worried they'll misunderstand your core beliefs? Affirming providers build that trust from day one.💙

🔵Because spiritual identity is part of whole-person health. Everyone deserves care that respects their entire being—mind, body, AND spirit, without fear of judgment. 💙

🔵Many professionals are not aware of the Christian-based language used in everyday conversation. Saying, "Bless you" after someone sneezes is one example. Phrases like: bless your heart, heaven forbid, God willing, thank God or light at the end of the tunnel are all Christian-based phrases that can cause a patient to hide their spiritual needs out of fear of judgement. Affirming care consciously creates a neutral, welcoming environment. Here are a few tips.

🔵To be pagan-affirming is to actively create a clinical environment where a client's non-dominant spiritual path is met not with tolerance, but with informed respect. It means honoring practices like nature reverence, energy work, and cyclical rituals as valid components of a person's worldview and coping resources, without judgment or pathologization. It is the commitment to understand enough to provide culturally competent care, ensuring the client never has to hide or minimize their beliefs to feel safe in your care.🔵

🔵When your patient's spiritual practice includes grounding in nature, energy work, or honoring cycles, a provider who pathologizes these tools can do real harm. Affirming providers integrate them into your healing.💙

Hello friends! We're less than two weeks away from S*x Down South!! Rachel Anne Kieran and Jessica Renard are going to be presenters! Our session is Saturday morning: Crafting a Therapy Ritual: Using Your Magic to Support Your Inner Work w/ Rachel Anne Kieran, PsyD & Jessica Renard

Ritual is a concept that can be applied in many situations, including therapy. In this workshop, we will customize rituals to integrate diverse spiritualities into therapy, counseling or any kind of personal growth work, including sacred s*xuality. Creating your own ritual in this way helps to increase intention and presence. This will include engaging the senses, the elements, energy and protection, use of tools, and how to talk about this with a provider (whether they share your spiritual approach or not). Therapists Rachel and Jessica are the founders of Pagan Affirming Therapy & Healthcare (PATH), as well as therapists focusing on s*x and relationship diversity across populations with diverse identities.

If you want to come and check it out, there's still time to get tickets! You can use JessicaR to get a discount on the Enthusiast Membership!
