Description

BDSM and Kink: The Basics provides an essential overview of knowledge that every clinician should have about alternative sexualities.

In an accessible, user-friendly format, the authors offer a high-level yet comprehensive introduction to the world of bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, sadomasochism, fetishists, and more. Written by two of the leading experts on working with kinky clients, BDSM and Kink: The Basics takes a sex-positive, kink-affirming approach to the material, exploring everything from etiologies and basic terminology through risk assessment and clinical best practices. The perfect desk reference for any clinician who wants to expand their understanding of erotic minorities, this book will prepare you to meet your clients with curiosity and competency while offering digital resources and specific suggestions to deepen your knowledge wherever you need it most.

This book is essential for mental health and medical providers, educators, and individuals interested in learning more about BDSM and Kink.

Reviews

"Stefani Goerlich and Elyssa Helfer skilfully write about the misunderstood topic of kink and BDSM with much clarity, dispelling the myths and harmful assumptions, and making this book an accessible and enjoyable read. This book is well-researched and includes all the complexities and nuances of kink and BDSM, from pleasure and pain to benefits and risks. It is a must-read for all therapists and other professionals in becoming kink-informed and kink-affirmative."

Silva Neves, author of Sexology: The Basics

"BDSM and Kink: The Basics is a thorough exploration of kink that is much needed, both for those who want to explore their own sexuality and those who want to understand kinky people. The only way to combat the stigma around these sexual practices and marginalized communities is through frank discussion and education about consent and the skills that are needed to play safely. Every professional should also understand these dynamics to better assist their clients who are kinky."

Susan Wright, National Coalition for Sexual Freedom

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
