Instructional Level

Introductory — Designed for psychologists who may have little to no background in a specialized skill or content area. The learner can become acquainted with the theoretical underpinnings, principles, methods, and perspectives of a content area. Although it can be used as a foundation for more advanced learning, a program may simply focus on breadth, enrichment or general knowledge.

Course Description and Target Audience

Sexuality is an innate aspect of humans across the lifespan. As a result, therapists frequently encounter a variety of sexuality issues in the clients they treat, but may not feel well-equipped to address sexual concerns effectively. This introductory workshop will address a wide range of sexuality issues that arise in children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, as well as effective strategies and interventions for treating sexual issues across the lifespan. Risks include some potential for discomfort while discussing sexual matters.

The target audience is mental health providers (advanced doctoral level psychology trainees, psychologists in practice, master’s level clinicians etc).

Learning Objectives

  • Participants will be able to identify five signs that distinguish normative from problematic sexual behavior in children.
  • Participants will be able to identify three ways clinicians can assist parents in communicating with their children and adolescents about sexuality.
  • Participants will be able to name three biological, psychological, and social factors that contribute to sexual concerns during pregnancy and postpartum.
  • Participants will be able to identify three ways to work with couples in long-term relationships for the purpose of increasing desire.
