This book provides clinicians and clinical graduate students with a comprehensive description of readily useful, practical, and empirically-based treatments for the specific sexual dysfunctions most commonly encountered in clinical practice with couples and individuals. In providing guidelines for best clinical practices, Metz and Epstein emphasize cognitive-behavioral treatments and incorporate scientific evidence about sexual dysfunctions and sex therapy interventions. Each chapter incorporates research and theoretical foundations and includes a discussion of the issues that commonly arise when working with clients with sexual problems. This book also provides explanations of the clinician’s role in dealing with clients with sexual dysfunction to enhance the clinician’s competence and comfort; strategies for conceptualizing sexual dysfunction and choosing the appropriate interventions; and specific treatment details for male and female sexual dysfunctions. Numerous case examples throughout the text illustrate the clinical sex therapy process, and clinical aides, handouts, educational materials, and resources are included in appendices.
