Description
When male sexual dysfunction enters the clinical room, technique alone is rarely enough. This training offers a nervous system-informed, shame-first framework that changes how clinicians enter the conversation, sequence treatment, and support lasting change across all three major presenting concerns.
In this 3-hour intensive, sex therapist Michelle Fischler walks clinicians through her shame-first framework applied to erectile dysfunction, early ejaculation, and delayed ejaculation. Participants will leave with a structured assessment approach, a sequenced treatment model, and concrete interventions for each condition, grounded in current research and applicable in the next session.
About the Presenter:
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the clinical distinction between shame and guilt as it presents across erectile dysfunction, early ejaculation, and delayed ejaculation, and explain how this distinction guides treatment sequencing.
- Apply a shame-first assessment approach to male sexual dysfunction presentations using the five clinical questions outlined in the training.
- Identify at least three evidence-based interventions for each condition covered and name the clinical conditions under which each intervention is introduced.
