Publisher's Synopsis
Written by a sex therapist and psychiatrist, this text is a self-help guide for women whose sexuality is inhibited or blocked by fear or physical pain. It sets about helping them to understand the blocks to a healthy sexual life by mapping the "terra incognita" of their own bodies and their sexuality. By doing this, they should gain a clearer understanding of how problems develop, and how to unravel them. There are numerous relaxation techniques, sensate focus exercises, treatments for specific disorders, and suggestions for working with sex therapists and other mental health professionals.
