Description


Speaker |Teacher | Researcher


Dr. Yulinda Renee Rahman, also known as Doc Yu Roc, is the creator of the Therapeutic BDSM Practitioner Directory and is a distinguished Trauma-Informed, Board-Certified Kink Conscious Sex Therapist with a Doctorate in Clinical Sexology.


Yulinda has carved out a niche in integrating kink practices with therapeutic methodologies to promote healing, self-discovery, and personal growth. Therapeutic BDSM is a modality she developed to aid individuals, particularly those with histories of body-based trauma, in their healing processes. Her approach integrates somatic experiencing and BDSM practices to help clients reconnect with their bodies and process trauma in a safe and controlled environment.


Dr. Rahman's expertise extends to Self-Reconciliation Therapy (SRT), a unique modality she developed to address the specific needs of Black women with a history of sexual trauma. This therapeutic approach has since evolved to support anyone with body-based trauma, emphasizing the importance of cultural context and historical background. SRT integrates somatic experiencing, body mapping, and narrative therapy and is grounded in four key pillars: Awareness, Acceptance, Attunement, and Atonement. These pillars guide individuals on a journey of self-discovery, helping them process trauma and achieve personal reconciliation.


In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Rahman is an accomplished author and speaker. Her book, A Power Exchange with Your Pain: A Guide Towards Reconciliation with SELF, provides a comprehensive framework for SRT, blending therapeutic techniques with historical and cultural insights. This resource serves both clinicians and individuals seeking to heal from sexual trauma. Her most recent book, Therapeutic BDSM: An Alternative Form of Healing, invites clinicians and the public at large to think outside of the box when it comes to helping modalities, techniques, and interventions.
