[Concept and method of treating functional sex disorders--experiences and problems]
Abstract:
The specifity of the treatment of functional sexual disturbances has led to a conceptional and methodical enlargement of the behaviour-therapeutic approach in form of an intergrative sexual therapy, which includes constituents of other therapy concepts and methods (communication therapy, conversational psychotherapy, formation therapy). Partial aims and techniques of the sexual therapy related to these are cited and the special difficulties of the sexual therapy for the therapeutist are indicated. The own approach is described in 5 steps (problem analysis, analysis of causes, plan of therapy, cognitive therapy, realisation of the programme), in which case as a rule a consultation phase precedes the therapeutic phase. The cognitive therapy is regarded as the centre of the sexual therapy; from this result several modification concerning the standardized sexual-therapeutic programmes.
