Counseling for Sexual Disorders was first published as Volume Twenty-Six of Resources for Christian Counseling by Word Publishing in 1900 as the protocol for sexual therapists to use in effectively treating couples experiencing sex dysfunction or those seeking increased sexual satisfaction. The protocol was developed based on the research of Masters and Johnson, which is the application of their findings to therapeutic intervention that they had intended but did not complete. The addition of others, like Helen Singer Kaplan works were incorporated into this practical handbook. It has become the text frequently used in universities, seminaries and graduate schools. Since 1990, the basics are the same (the table of contents reflects this stability), but the terminology used and the knowledge gained through sex and the brain research, organizations like ISSWSH (Dr. Irwin Goldstein) and the Penners’ 50 years of clinical experience led to this much needed revised updated version.Counseling for Sexual Disorders prepares the clinician and graduate student to have a clear comprehension of the Guidelines and Underlying Principles for the effective use of the evidence-based strategies for assessment, therapeutic intervention and relapse prevention. The tools to implement those processes may be duplicated, including the forms for assessment, the 31 Sexual Therapy assignments, and for gathering data regarding the couple’s experience of the completion of the assignments in the privacy of their own home.This revision for professionals is now designed to parallel the client’s handbook Restoring the Pleasure. Thus, the 31 assignments are identical in both books.
