Sex Therapy for the Non-Sex Therapist: Helping clients with their sexual issues in couples and individual therapy
Title of Event: Sex Therapy for the Non-Sex Therapist: Helping clients with their sexual issues in couples and individual therapy
Description of Event:
Most clients will struggle with some aspect of their sex life, whether it is issues with sexual desire, sexual anxiety or aversion, sexual frustration, problems with arousal and orgasm, differences in desire between partners, or painful sex. However, many clients go no further than their individual or couples therapist to work on their sexual concerns. This seminar introduces individual and couples therapists to the basics of helping their clients with their sexual concerns. This will give you the basic anatomy, physiology, and practices of sex therapy to have enough competence and confidence to both talk to and help many of your clients in your practice.
