The Episode About Sex Therapy

Sex therapy is one of those topics that shows up on your licensure exam with more nuance than most people expect — and in clinical practice even more so. In this episode, we break down the foundational frameworks you need to know cold: Masters and Johnson's EPOR model, Kaplan's triphasic model, and why the distinction between the two matters more than it might seem.
We cover the DSM-5 sexual dysfunction diagnoses including the changes you need to know, the PLISSIT model as a clinical road map for any counselor working with sexual concerns, and the core behavioral techniques — sensate focus, the stop-start method, and directed masturbation — with enough clinical context to actually use them.
We also get into the ethics, the biopsychosocial framework for assessment, and the physiological details that tend to trip people up on exams. Whether you're studying for the NCE, NCMHCE, or just want to feel more confident when a client brings sex into the room, this one's for you.
