Course Description:

This workshop will help practitioners learn to treat the two most common concerns that women bring to sex therapists: 1) Difficulty orgasming with a partner; and 2) Diminished sexual desire. Too often women report feeling they are the cause of these problems and are somehow “broken”, not recognizing the roles that culture, medical, and relational factors play.

This workshop will help participants better understand the cultural reasons for the high prevalence of these sexual problems among women. Participants will also become versed in the myriad medical, individual, and relational causes underlying both concerns. Most importantly, evidence-based treatments for both concerns will be presented. Participants will leave this webinar able to assess, normalize, and intervene with these common issues, using empirically supported techniques.
