I’ve been teaching versions of Hypnosis for Sex Problems for thirteen years and I am still amazed by the versatility of hypnosis as well as the importance of combining it with the most supportive and accurate information about human sexuality that is available at the time. This means that I do periodic updates of the course.

My own life changes have also figured in curriculum development. For example, a diagnosis of ovarian cancer last year caused me to investigage the sexual challenges that result from the illness and effects of treatment and surgery. I added a section on this to the course. I did the same thing when I became aware of the challenges of pelvic organ prolapses a few years ago.

I can’t “cover the waterfront” of the entirety of how hypnosis can assist with various sexual and gender issues, but I try. And this year, with some policy makers in the US doing everything they can to turn back the advances that have been so hard won over the last fifty years–I feel that it’s more important than ever to provide informed services to LGBTQIA+ folks, and other people in marginalized communities. This attitude informs my work and informs this course.

Here is where I stand as a teacher, a clinician, and a person.
