Therapy of Desire Disorders. Clinical Handbook.

Loss or absence of interest in sex — a common complaint in the practice of sex therapists. The book discusses the most effective approaches to treating individual clients and couples with detailed descriptions of relevant clinical cases. The authors of the book are experienced therapists who explore issues of sexual desire and offer methods for their treatment. The book reveals the complex interplay of biological, psychological, interpersonal, contextual, and sociocultural factors that must be considered in therapeutic assessment and the selection of appropriate interventions. Brief introductions to the chapters, written by Sandra R. Leiblum, outline key topics and provide insight into each author's approach.
