Research papers peer-reviewed and published
We are proud to announce that both Chris Wilhoite and Tommy Underhill have had their research presented in 2024 at the International Symposium on Sex Therapy in Portimão, Portugal published in Unifying the Field of Psychosexual Therapy by Cambridge Scholars Press.
Chris presented her Master’s thesis entitled The Role of Body Image and Sexual Shame in Women’s Sexual Dysfunction. Tommy presented his research on What every mental health professional needs to know about sex and autism.
The present book marks a groundbreaking entry into the field of sexual health literature. This edited volume gathers an unparalleled array of insights, research findings, and innovative approaches from leading experts around the world, addressing the multifaceted challenges and opportunities within psychosexual therapy. What distinguishes this book is its dedication to diversity and inclusivity, reflected in both the topics explored and the diverse backgrounds of its contributors. From examining psychosexual practices within the Deaf community to sensitively navigating gender identity conflicts in traditionally religious settings, this book offers a rich mosaic of perspectives that highlights the complexity and scope of the field.
Each chapter deepens the understanding of specific issues while weaving a cohesive narrative that underscores the interconnectedness of psychological, cultural, and ethical dimensions in sex therapy. For anyone dedicated to advancing sexual wellness and therapeutic practices, this book is an essential addition to their collection, promising both insight and inspiration.
Both Chris and Tommy are presenting research at this year’s International Symposium on Sex Therapy to be held in May at Hvar, Croatia.
