Rezensionen

'Aided by lively case studies, the author explores how emotional, relationship and societal pressures may affect sexual confidence, pleasure and functioning. Medical interventions tend to focus purely on the physical issue. Emphasising that sex is about much more than "successful" intercourse, and that sex therapy is about much more than "fixing" the dysfunction, she provides a thorough examination of the different types of sex therapy on offer - from appropriate information-giving to the training and work of a qualified psychosexual therapist.'

Relationships

'Cate's chapter on professionalism addresses the issues of being a psychosexual therapist with a "down to earth" no-nonsense approach, making it very easy to integrate this advice into professional practice. In particular, I was struck by her highlighting the effect that our chosen profession can have on our families, colleagues, personal and professional relationships, and the fantasies and projections they may have about our work. Very sound advice from a very experience professional, and ideal reading for experienced psychosexual therapists and students alike.'
Jo Coker is a counselling psychologist and COSRT Professional Standards Manager

'Sex Therapy: The Basics is a courageous attempt to wrestle sex and relationship matters away from the specialist professionals - a decided minority - and to restore them to the vast group of health professionals dealing with them on a day-to-day basis. Her publication treads a fine line between accessibility and the necessary nuances required by this important field. The inclusion of professional issues as well as diversity themes is particularly laudable. As course director of a national training organisation focusing on sex and relationships, I welcome this pioneering work and consider it essential reading.'
