Webinar Description
Female Sexuality Across the Lifespan. 3-hour workshop
Individual therapists as well as couples therapists deal with women’s sexuality all the time. However, most therapists have no education and training on how to help couples through their sexual concerns and issues during major life cycle events such as when they are trying to conceive, when she is pregnant, postpartum, and menopause. Is what they are experiencing normal? How do other couples cope with this sexual concern? This course will explore the intricacies of sexual lifecycle events from preventing pregnancy, trying to conceive, pregnancy, postpartum, to menopause. Participants will learn to identify medical, psychological, and socio-cultural factors which are playing a role in her concerns. They will also learn ways to best support the couple as well as practical intervention techniques to help them through this time in their life.
Learning Objectives:
- Participants will learn the intricacies of sexual lifecycle events of a woman’s life from preventing pregnancy, trying to conceive, pregnancy, postpartum, to menopause.
- Participants will understand the medical, psychological, and socio-cultural factors which affect a woman’s sexuality across her lifespan.
- Participants will learn how they can support women and couples in individual therapy or couples therapy throughout their life with respect to sexual, relational, medical, and psychological challenges throughout life.
- Participants will have 2-3 case studies to discuss.
