Expanding the Practice of Sex Therapy

by Gina Ogden

The revised edition of this award-winning book offers 33 Neuro Updates, which provide evidence-based data to help you recognize and explain the deeply transformational nature of the work. Expanding the Practice of Sex Therapy looks beyond behavioral treatments, pharmaceutical interventions, and performance goals to a comprehensive picture of what your clients want and need when they enter sex therapy, and offers creative ways to engage your clients in their own therapeutic process, whether or not you are trained as a sex therapist. Central to Gina Ogden's approach is her Four-Dimensional Wheel of Sexual Experience, an innovative template that recognizes the full range of sexual issues: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. The text is organized into five practice-oriented sections that introduce the 4-D Wheel; show you how you can use it with individuals, couples, and groups; and encourage you to explore it on your own.

(3.5) really enjoyed the book even though I'm only an educator and not a therapist. I wish it had more in it that I wanted, but that's ok, not written for me. overall it was good and easy read. Insightful and full of ideas for implimentation.
