Sexual disorders may arise from multiple causes. Their clinical
assessment, diagnosis, and treatment must take into account the
patient's underlying biology, history, and behaviors. Using an
approach pioneered at the Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions, Peter
Fagan applies the four "perspectives of psychiatry" (disease,
dimension, behavior, and life story) to the diagnosis and treatment
of sexual disorders.
This book offers therapists an efficient and clinically proven
way to organize the range of theoretical methodologies currently
available, presenting a framework that is both conceptually
cohesive and readily applicable in clinical settings. After an
introduction, each chapter offers a case study followed by an
analysis based on one perspective methodology as well as a
discussion of the clinical implications of that perspective. The
book closes with a chapter integrating the approaches. This book
will be of interest to mental health care professionals, including
psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers, who treat
patients with sexual disorders.
