When I tell people that I am a therapy intern at the Institute of Sexual Health, I’m always shocked by how few people understand what sex therapy is. For most people, their understanding of sexual therapy comes from portrayals of media that portray misunderstandings and create caricatures of sexual therapy. I can’t count the number of times compared to Roz Focker, a fictional large sex therapist played by Barbra Streisand in the movie Little Fockers. In the movie, Roz casually offers advice on the most pleasant sex stance to the people she meets for the first time, embarrassing family gatherings when she asks about her in-laws’ sex life. She also created slogans like “sexpress yourself!” She will share “Release the beast within you” with clients, friends, family and strangers. While I appreciate the ways in which sexual therapy has become more mainstream and socially acceptable, I worry that it is a wrong idea that false statements allow people who can benefit from sexual therapy. Let’s look at what sex therapy is actually and what you can expect in the Sexual Health Institute’s Sexual Therapy course.
The creators of Little Fockers didn’t get everything wrong from their character Roz. First, I thank her for her positive approach to life and I believe most sex therapists will agree with me. What Roz won’t talk about is that as age, it’s sexual pleasure, bonds, BDSM, relationship satisfaction or intimate details of gender. When you came to the Sexual Health Institute, we haven’t heard of anything before, there isn’t any part of your sexual experience. However, I think Roz stands out as invasive, breaking the boundaries of those around him. The person she interacted with did not agree to confirm that they wanted to share personal details of their sex life. In fact, it is obvious that people find Rhodes’ constant discussion of sex to be unpleasant and stressful. In real life, the process of sexual therapy is customer-centric and customer-led. We can only introduce the details that you can share safely in a way that is controllable for you. It may be important for your therapist to understand the specific details of your sex life, but you always have the autonomy to say you don’t want to share and that will be respected.
Of course, it is important to make the treatment space feel safe and your story trusts the therapist, but there are boundaries when it is not appropriate in the treatment. These guidelines are appropriate to protect you and the therapist. First, it is not sexual work (people who receive money or goods in exchange for sexual services) or sexual surrogacy (practitioners solve problems related to intimacy and sexuality by using touch and sexual contact). Therefore, there is no physical contact, nudity or sexual activity between you and your sex therapist. In the movie Little Fox, Roz leads a class in her home, allowing older people to personally guide them through different gender positions working with their aging bodies. At the Sexual Health Institute, we are happy to discuss and recommend specific sexual interactions and positions, but we will not touch, guide or body help you in any way. Again, we will not invite you to our home, to your home, or to meet you outside our office or telemedicine meetings. Unlike ROZ, sex therapists are subject to important moral considerations, and prohibiting dual relationships or activities can be interpreted as friendship.
While Roz seems to focus on sexual pleasure, real sexual therapy covers anything related to human sexual behavior. This may include sexual trauma, enhancing couple intimacy, monogamous and non-monogamous relationship structures, sexual exploration and development, and sexual behaviors during aging from puberty to menopause and beyond. Similarly, all clinicians at the Institute of Sexual Health are trained as clinical counselors, social workers or marriage and family therapists, in addition to obtaining training related to sexual and sexual behavior. This means that we are all good at dealing with anxiety, depression, and life dissatisfaction in general that may not be related to your sexual problems.
