Handbook of clinical sexuality for mental health professionals

This volume is designed to assist mental health professionals who are not prepared by education or supervised clinical experience to effectively and optimistically approach their patients' common sexual concerns.

This book provides mental health professionals with comprehensive and essential knowledge of human sexuality to competently generate a practical approach to specific high-prevalence sexual difficulties.

Leading experts provide case illustrations, including what questions to ask, which treatments to consider and how to discern which treatments will work for each patient.

It also addresses the issue of which case can be treated using these brief interventions and which should be referred to a specialist.
