Human Sexuality

Catalog description

Too often, sexuality suffers the same fate in therapy as it does in this culture: it is hidden, not to be discussed, treated as irrelevant. Students examine issues related to sexuality that clients might bring to therapy, consciously or unconsciously. Students start by looking at what they as therapists bring to their work and explore personal and cultural aspects of sex, touch, intimacy, passion, the body, erotica and pornography, developmental issues, alternative lifestyles, transpersonal elements, and more. Guest speakers are included.
