Section B
Description:
In this course I’ll teach you how some new ways to assess and treat some of the more complex sex problems seen in clinical practice today.
I’ll show you how to get more detailed information about all aspects of clients’ sexual experience: what actually happens in bed, as well as what goes on in each partner’s head. I’ll equip you with a new vocabulary you can use to empower clients to more carefully observe their own arousal (or lack of it!). And I’ll show you how to use all this information to guide treatment, using detailed case examples drawn from my own experience working with over 1,500 individuals and couples.
We’ll discuss how to do sex therapy with clients with the three most common mental conditions seen in sex therapy settings: Mood Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, and Developmental Disorders including ADHD. We’ll discuss the impact of medications on sexual functioning for the one in six Americans who currently take psychiatric medications—including the Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SRI’s), which have a broad range of sexual side effects that every clinician should understand. And we’ll review what every therapist should know about PDE5-Inhibitors such as Viagra and Cialis.
