MFT 743 - Human Sexuality

This course undertakes to provide prospective marriage and family therapists with a theoretical and practical foundation for dealing with human sexual behavior. This course will sort out good information from bad, opinion from fact, and myth from truth as to provide an integrated introduction to the study of human behavior. Human sexual behavior will be examined from multiple perspectives: the biological, psychological, socio-cultural, and the systemic. The course will provide a systemic basis for evaluating the marital relationship of couples with sexual problems and dysfunctions. Students will be given a method for understanding marital/sexual problems using an intergenerational, interpersonal perspective.
