Continuing Education for Therapists Through Flourish Media & Education

Flourish Media & Education is the continuing education division of Joanne Bagshaw & Associates, a psychotherapy group practice rooted in feminist, trauma-informed, and inclusive care. As an extension of our clinical work, Flourish provides high-quality education and training programs for therapists who want to deepen their clinical knowledge and expand their capacity to support diverse clients with competence and confidence.

Flourish is proud to be an organizational CE provider approved by AASECT (American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists) and an approved continuing education provider for NBCC (National Board for Certified Counselors). Our programs are designed to meet the highest standards in adult learning and clinical relevance, with a strong focus on intersectional and evidence-informed approaches.

We offer a range of in-person and virtual training programs that center the real-world complexities of psychotherapy practice. Popular topics include:

  • Working with Low Sexual Desire across the lifespan, including feminist, trauma-informed, and relational perspectives

  • Adoption-Competent Therapy, with a focus on supporting adopted individuals, adoptive families, and challenging dominant adoption narratives

  • Therapy for LGBTQ+ Clients, including affirming care across gender and sexual diversity

  • Trauma-Informed Sex Therapy and body-based practices

  • Systemic Sex Therapy

Whether you're a newly licensed therapist or a seasoned clinician, our trainings are designed to help you stay current, grow your skills, and connect with a supportive professional community.

At Flourish, we believe that continuing education should not only build clinical expertise, but also reflect a commitment to ethics, equity, and ongoing self-awareness. Our faculty members are experienced clinicians, educators, and thought leaders who bring both clinical depth and critical perspectives to their teaching.
