Infos

Discover inclusive, trauma-informed sexual health insights using science-based models and therapies.

This comprehensive, science-based textbook is designed for upper-level college, graduate students, and professionals in psychology, psychotherapy, counseling, social work, and other related fields. Written from a gender-expansive, non-binary, and intersex-inclusive framework, the textbook integrates feminist research and intersectionality throughout its chapters, offering a positive and empowered approach to sexual health.

It addresses a wide range of topics, including the Dual Control Model of sexual desire, developmental and aging sexual health, and non-monogamous relationships such as polyamory. Treatment strategies span Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), systemic approaches, medical interventions, and psychoeducation to address sexual health and treatment, with the potential impact of trauma as a central theme.
