Sexual Disorders cause significant distress for those affected due to a number of factors: hesitance to discuss, stigma, shame, physical discomfort, fear of rejection and in some cases, the intersection with justice and the courts. This webinar will serve as an introduction to the Sexual Disorders as classified in the DSM so that that participants have a basic understanding of what behaviours define and motivate these disorders, should they arise in their caseloads.
