Description:

This workshop will cover sexual response, diagnosis and in depth treatment options for female sexual dysfunction.

Learning Objectives:

  • Assess one’s own hesitations and fears around addressing sexual issues and develop a normalizing, open clinical approach that allows for discussion of sexual concerns in an environment free of shame and judgment
  • Explain the difference between responsive and spontaneous desire and the ways in which to educate clients and their partners about the varied ways desire can manifest
  • Discuss ways to accurately assess orgasmic difficulties, given the highly subjective experience, and how to guide clients in expanding their orgasmic potential through mindfulness and behavioral changes
  • List 3 differences between dyspareunia and vaginismus and the ways to best collaborate with medical providers when treating either concern
  • Describe 3 ways in which a client’s partner can influence outcomes in sex therapy treatment
  • Discuss how treatment must be amended for clients who do not currently have a sexual partner or have a non-participating partner
  • Explain 3 clinical considerations that must be made when treating clients with cultural, religious, or otherwise ideological barriers to participating in mainstream treatment protocols or best practices
