In this fascinating book, Cherry Potter takes readers on her personal and professional quest for insights into sex, relationships and gender differences. Why do we feel what we feel, and do what we do? What is the impact of 'performance anxiety' on men, and on society generally? Why are women still faking it? Is ubiquitous online porn turning the clock backwards?The book delves into the work of Freud, Klein, Bowlby and recent developments in attachment theory for insights into our conscious and unconscious fears and desires, and introduces readers to a range of fascinating clients. These include Jeremy, who was so ashamed of his virginity he was unable to have a relationship; Ellie, who repeatedly fell in love with unobtainable men; Kieran, whose fear of abandonment threatened to wreck his gay relationships; Dulcie, who for years had been unable to face the truth that her husband was having multiple affairs; and Lars, who was addicted to online porn and prostitutes. The book shows how the work between therapist and client is a process of learning together, which is at times painful and deeply moving, but can also reflect a renewed vitality and hope for the future, particularly when it comes to talking about sex. How Psychotherapy Helps Us Understand Sexual Relationships: Insights from the Consulting Roomwill be of great interest to both the general reader as well as psychotherapists and counsellors. | How Psychotherapy Helps Us Understand Sexual Relationships by Cherry Potter, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
