Sexual Issues in Couples Therapy
Title of Event: Sexual Issues in Couples Therapy
Description of Event: Despite being seasoned couples therapists, many practitioners find themselves ‘out of their comfort zone’ when it comes to treating sexual problems among their clients. Even when presenting problems are not sex-related, the non-sexual aspects of a relationship impact the sexual aspects of a relationship (and vice-versa). This workshop is for clinicians that work with couples and wish to gain more competence with the topic of sex and incorporate more specific approaches to dealing with sexual issues in their practices. Some topics that will be explored: low-sex and sex-less relationships, orgasmic and erectile difficulties, infidelity, same and different gendered partner challenges, sexual response.
