London College of Clinical Hypnosis

Lecturer: Maggie Chapman

Psychosexual dysfunction is a class of disorders all of which reveal an inhibition of some aspect of the appetite and or physiological changes that normally characterize the complete sexual response cycle in which the dysfunction is not due to known organic factors

When symptoms are experienced they affect many other areas in our lives. Sexual responses are natural and innate, the sexual response cycle has distinct phases any of which can be affected by various external and internal factors. Recognizing the phase where the dysfunction occurs and identifying the factors affecting that phase of the cycle is an important part of informing the therapeutic process.

This masterclass will explore effective ways of working with these issues, whether they are based in cognitive factors or more primal imagery, enabling you to use your hypnotherapy skills to naturally enhance an individual's sexual experience and increase self esteem in other parts of their life.

Many therapists can find working within this area presents boundary issues, by gaining greater understanding of the sexual response cycle and how to work with the circumstances surrounding its mediation will enable you to work more effectively in other areas too.
