Call it a remnant of our Victorian past, but sexual concerns lag
behind other aspects of health, both in the training of physicians
and therapists and in the way they impart this knowledge to
clients. But as sexuality gains recognition as crucial to one's
quality of life, evidence-based methods of understanding and
discussing sex are imperative-and not only in treating pathology.
Sexual Medicine in Clinical Practice provides framework, rationale,
and strategies for both approaching sexual problems and addressing
patients' questions about sexual health, behavior, and
relationships. Analyzing sexuality along three
dimensions-attachment, reproduction, and desire-this concise manual
offers a biopsychosocial lifespan model readily translatable into
clinical work. This "syndyastic" framework integrates attachment
and relational theory to reinforce the bond between intimacy and
connectedness, and models nonjudgmental approaches to disorders of
sexual function, maturity, preference, and behavior. The authors'
salutogenic rather than pathogenic focus lets clients become major
players in their own healing, and the therapist or doctor serve as
expert and guide. Among the topics covered: The communicative
function of sexuality. The spectrum of sexual disorders. Principles
of diagnostics in sexual medicine. Disease-centered versus
client-centered aspects of sexual therapy. Therapeutic approaches
for sexual traumatization. New challenges, including preventing
child sexual abuse and online sex crime. Plus case studies,
interdisciplinary references, and ethical issues. A timely,
perspective- and practice-altering volume, Sexual Medicine in
Clinical Practice is essential reading for family and primary care
physicians, family and sex therapists, health psychologists, and
psychiatrists.
