Sex Therapy
The average counsellor and/or psychologist has less than 10 hours of education around issues related to human sexuality and this education is often limited to basic human anatomy and functioning. When discussing issues related to sex and sexual functioning, it is imperative that a therapist has the proper training. Our society is bombarded with mixed messages about sex - messages that are often negative and/or confusing. A therapist who hasn’t had proper training can inadvertently do harm, simply because they are unaware of the biases and sex-negative attitudes that they possess. Daniele Doucet holds a specialized PhD in Human Sexuality -- a rare education to have in Canada!
