| SEXUAL
EXPERIENCE AND
SEXUAL COUNSELING:
ASIAN AND WESTERN
PERSPECTIVES
Harrison Voigt
This workshop examines the experience and expression of sexual
energies from Eastern and Western perspectives and includes
a description and discussion of sexuality from the personal,
interpersonal, and transpersonal perspectives. Through a combination
of didactic and experiential learning modalities, the workshop
will examine sexual awareness, beliefs, physiological responses,
and the evolving personal meaning of sexual experience.
Guest speakers will contribute perspectives from gay, lesbian,
bisexual, and transgender/transsexual orientations. Contemporary
approaches to sexual counseling and sexual enrichment will
be reviewed and critiqued and illustrated with case material
from couples and individuals working on sexual issues. The
course will also present an introduction of a new model for
couples' sexual enhancement, derived from Tantrism.
