'This is a terrific book for teaching, refreshing, and discussing. My very experienced sex therapy peer supervision group went through it chapter by chapter and was glad for the opportunity.'- Leonore Tiefer, PhD, Clinical Associate Professor, Department of Psychiatry, NYU School of Medicine 'Sexual health, dependent on both the mind and the body, is a significant part of overall health for many individuals. Too many healthcare professionals are uncomfortable speaking about sexuality. Handbook of Clinical Sexuality for Mental Health Professionalssteps in where most schools leave off, helping you understand what questions to ask, why you are asking them, and what to do when your clients answer. This easily readable and well-written book is a must for your toolkit to help make sex fun and satisfying for your clients again.'- Irwin Goldstein, MD, Director, Sexual Medicine, Alvardo Hospital, San Diego, CA; Clinical Professor of Surgery, University of California at San Diego; Director, San Diego Sexual Medicine 'A wonderful and inspiring book, for both beginners and experienced therapists in the field of sexual health. The personal introduction to each chapter is brilliant and the many clinical cases make it an interesting read. The book elegantly incorporates the biopsychosocial approaches to sexuality and updates current research in the field of sexual function and dysfunctions. All heath care providers can be inspired by this book.'- Annamaria Giraldi, MD, PhD, Sexologist, Clinic of Sexology, Copenhagen, Denmark; Past President, Society for the Study of Women "s Sexual Health; President, Scandinavian Society for Sexual Medicine 'Anyone who has had the opportunity to attend one of Dr. Levine "s lectures or courses knows that he is an outstanding educator. He and his co-authors have written a superb book that combines humanism and sciences and is a delight to read! Handbook of Clinical Sexuality for Mental Health Professionals is more than a reference work, it is a true learning experience.'- Deborah J.

He and his co-authors have written a superb book that combines humanism and sciences and is a delight to read! Handbook of Clinical Sexuality for Mental Health Professionals is more than a reference work, it is a true learning experience." - Deborah J. Hales, MD, Director, Division of Education, American Psychiatric Association "The novice and seasoned sexologist alike will emerge from the book''s hefty pages not only better informed, but encouraged and supported in the sometimes unheralded and almost always solitary work we do. I would recommend this book to MHPs who are keen to increase their involvement in the clinical treatment of their clients'' sexual issues, and for those who are anxious about doing so but understand the necessity of including this crucial aspect. It is also a darn good read for sex therapists in private practice, which can be a terribly isolated profession. This handbook proved far more readable than a textbook and provided a substantive amount of information about a well-rounded section of contemporary clinical sexuality interventions. The bottom line is that I believe I am a better clinician for having read this book. - Pega Ren, Ed.D., Journal of Sex Research "This unique and meaningful text personalizes the experience of working with patients struggling with clinical issues of sexuality.The authors are refreshingly transparent about their own therapeutic successes and failures, their evolving viewpoints, and their thoughts about various diagnostic criteria. The true gems of this text are the vignettes that punctuate each chapter. These glimpses into patient experiences are invaluable for readers and help foster the "supervisory" feeling of this text by providing excellent examples of patient struggles and therapist responses.Stephen Levine''s goal was to provide an accessible, personal, and useful volume for mental health professionals seeking to treat patients with sexual health, relationship, or sexuality issues. Dr. Levine, his associate editors, and his coauthors have succeeded masterfully. This book should be a welcome addition to any mental health practitioner''s library." - Jeanne M. Lackamp, M.D., Journal of Clinical Psychiatry
