Look beyond behavioral treatments, pharmaceutical interventions, and performance goals to a more comprehensive picture of what your clients want and need when they enter sex therapy. Gina Ogden is a master therapist, supervisor, researcher, teacher, and author with four decades of helping clients and training health professionals. Her ISIS Wheel of Sexual Experience is an innovative template that recognizes the full range of sexual issues: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Expanding the Practice of Sex Therapy offers you new language to discuss sexual issues and creative ways to engage clients in their own therapeutic process-whether or not you are trained as a sex therapist. The text is organized in four practice-oriented sections that introduce the ISIS Wheel, show you how you can use it with individuals, couples, and groups, and encourage you to explore it on your own. Once again Gina Ogden delivers. Expanding the Practice of Sex Therapy does exactly that: EXPAND. It will deepen your understanding, enrich your practice, and texture your overall appreciation of the complexities of sexuality. It is rich, thoughtful, and oh so useful for all therapists. I am immediately adding it to my recommendation list. - Esther Perel, Author of Mating in Captivity: Unlocking Erotic Intelligence ...Where else would the latest in sexual science and brain science and the poetry of Mary Oliver and Rumi live so comfortably together but in a book by Gina Ogden. True to her impressive reputation as a leading sex therapist, Ogden gives us a fresh paradigm, including both practical detailed guidelines for expanding our creative therapeutic work with individuals, couples, and groups, and a lovely meditation on her own valuable experiences as a sex therapist and teacher. The book is beautifully structured and emphasizes the ISIS wheel-that ultimately we do our best work when we ask new questions about sex that include a client's mental, emotional, and physical and spiritual stories. In an area where there are too few books to guide us, a real highlight of Ogden's book is her self-awareness as a therapist and her talent as a supervisor and teacher. Each page is rich with her insight. As a teacher and supervisor, I will be recommending this book enthusiastically to others. - Sallie Foley, Co-author of Sex Matters for Women; Director, University of Michigan Sexual Health Certificate Program Expanding the Practice of Sex Therapy presents a dynamic, innovative approach to helping our clients. This elegant, perceptive, and profound treatment model will furnish counselors and therapists with unique skills to help any relationship. A must read! - Michele Sugg, MSW, LCSW, CST, President, American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT); Sex Therapy Advisor, Alexander Foundation for Women's Health This book is the essential reference for future generations craving a new way to serve their clients. Gina Ogden's ISIS model reflects a new paradigm for how to address sexual issues and resolve them through integration of the whole human being. Her contribution to the field of sex therapy will last far beyond the quest for a new pill or the diagnostic search for treatment of pathologies. The cure instead is finding the sexual self, moving through a matrix of discovery in collaboration with the sex therapist or coach, and reaching peace with one's sexual story. - Patti Britton, PhD, MPH, Author of The Art of Sex Coaching; Past President, AASECT; Co-Founder, SexCoachU; Board-Certified Clinical Sexologist; Master Sex Coach; Adjunct Professor, The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality Expanding the Practice of Sex Therapy incorporates the holistic integrative ISIS approach that has helped so many clients to feel better and more accepting of themselves as sensual and sexual beings. Gina incorporates sexual science and brain research into her approach. As a scientist, I re
