As clinicians, we bring a finely-tuned set of observational skills and relational perspectives that permit a creative exploration of how gender is expe- rienced in and through the body. However, gender has been a relatively neglected territory within Body Psychotherapy theory and professional discourse. The presenter will discuss how Body Psychotherapy practitioners might bring themselves into an experience of fuller contact with gender and sexual diversity, become more aware of the complex territory that these topics illuminate in themselves and their clients, and feel more confident and skilled in navi- gating that territory. „Vom Umgang mit Genderfragen in der KPT“ KörperpsychotherapeutInnen sind in einer guten Ausgangslage, um Themen von Gender und Sexualität auf authentische und stärkende Weise zu bearbeiten. Als Kliniker verfügen wir über die Fähigkeit zur Wahrnehmung sowohl der körperlichen als auch der intersubjek- tiven Dimension von Körperpsychotherapie. Dies ermöglicht es uns, auf kreative Art und Weise zu erkunden, wie die Geschlechtlichkeit körperlich erlebt wird. In der Vergangen- heit wurde die Genderfragen im Diskurs der Körperpsychotherapie vernachlässigt. Im Vor- trag wird dargelegt, wie KörperpsychotherapeutInnen zu einer ganzheitliche Erfahrung von Geschlechtlichkeit und sexueller Vielfalt kommen können, welche komplexen Bereiche von diesen Themen in ihnen selbst und ihren Klienten berührt und beleuchtet werden und wie sie mit mehr Selbstvertrauen sich in diesem Feld bewegen können.
