I guess the point is, if the client is religious, we should consider that as part of their mental processing and shouldn’t take a strictly secular approach.
Sounds like common sense, but I can imagine cases where it’s not considered somehow.
But yes, title is not perfect.
Also, you made me think of pedophilia, but from the other side. I wonder how pedophilia intersects with various behaviors and disorders, how it may influence them, and how pedophiles (as in: people with an attraction to prepubescent children, not as in active child abusers) may self-censor in talks with therapists on how pedophilia influenced their other conditions, given the stigma around the topic.
Same for other stigmatized attractions, behaviors, and disorders, as well as taboos in general.
Misleading headline for clicks 🙄 it’s like saying “Pedophilia needs a seat at the table” …if our clients were sexually abused as children. No shit.
