Produktbeschreibung

Systemic Sex Therapy, third edition integrates couple and sex therapy to inform the treatment of sexual problems and to give beginning clinicians the abilities and confidence they need to produce change in their patients' lives.

Grounded in the Intersystem Approach, the book considers the biology, psychology, couple dyad, family-of-origin, and larger contextual factors of any sexual disorder or issue. Each chapter examines the definition and description of a sexual disorder or issue, its etiology, assessment, treatment, research, and future directions. This thoroughly revised edition presents 18 updated chapters consistent with the DSM-5 and features new content on sexuality and aging, infidelity, sexual interest/arousal disorder, disability, and kink/BDSM. Experts in the field discuss all the major sexual dysfunctions along with new chapters on culture, technology, and their interplay with sexual functioning.

An essential text in the field, Systemic Sex Therapy sets out a conceptual framework for graduate students in couple and family therapy programs looking to develop a comprehensive, integrative understanding of sexual issues.

Rezensionen

"This well established and highly respected text has been updated with excellent contemporary references, resources and several new chapters. For many years it has been my preferred and recommended text offering the complete resource to the clinician who intends to both understand the theory and to practice in a truly systemic manner."

Professor Kevan Wylie, MD, FRCP, FRCPsych, FRCOG, retired consultant in sexual medicine, Porterbrook Clinic & Urology, Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield; president, European Federation of Sexology; past president, World Association for Sexual Health.

"Today's social climate is rapidly changing and as such, sex therapists require knowledge, awareness and appreciation of important issues that were not part of the sex therapy academic curriculum even a decade ago. This revised text, edited by Hertlein, Gambescia, and Weeks, provides new chapters consistent with the changes in the DSM-5 and includes cutting-edge topics in sex therapy, including technology and culture. Systemic Sex Therapy is a highly recommended resource that should be required reading in all sex therapy training programs."
