Resumo
This chapter will address how sexology or sexual medicine professionals deal with sexual problems. There are some essential characteristics of sex therapy that are still commonly used in most clinical interventions aimed at solving sexual problems, and some new elements have been incorporated into traditional sex therapy in the last decades. This chapter will describe these elements to clarify what is going on in the sexologist’s consultation room so that the midwife can explain what the woman or the people she is closely involved with can expect when referred there. Based on a very brief case history, the chapter will introduce the essential steps of a possible sex therapy treatment program. This chapter is part of ‘Midwifery and Sexuality’, a Springer Nature open-access textbook for midwives and related healthcare professionals.
