Title: Sensate Focus for Erectile Dysfunction Speaker: Evie Kirana, Health Psychologist & Sexologist Content and aim: Sensate Focus, a therapeutic technique pioneered by sex therapists Masters and Johnson in the 1960s, serves as a transformative approach to address issues related to intimacy, arousal, and sexual dysfunction. This method shifts the emphasis from performance-oriented sexual activity to a holistic and mindful exploration of sensory experiences within the context of a relationship. Through a series of structured and progressive exercises, participants engage in non-demand touch, allowing them to focus on sensory experiences without the pressure of sexual performance. This gradual process facilitates a reconnection with one’s own body and encourages the exploration of sensations with a partner, ultimately fostering trust and understanding. Particularly effective in addressing concerns such as erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and arousal difficulties, Sensate Focus, when incorporated into a comprehensive treatment plan by sex therapists and relationship counselors, enables individuals and couples to break down barriers, manage performance anxiety, and rediscover a fulfilling and satisfying sexual connection, promoting overall sexual well-being and healthier intimate relationships. In this lecture, Evie Kirana shares her clinical strategies developed over two decades of experience working with men and couples facing psychogenic erectile dysfunction. Specifically designed to assist therapists in the mindful application of these strategies, the presentation addresses common challenges encountered in the treatment process. Issues explored include scenarios where couples may not follow instructions, instances where one partner may not actively engage in prescribed exercises, considerations regarding the frequency of exercise implementation, the potential synergy between Sensate Focus and pharmacotherapy, and how therapists should respond if a couple deviates from the recommended guidelines. Evie discusses these issues and more, offering clinicians valuable insights on transforming challenges into opportunities to enhance therapeutic outcomes. This lecture serves as a unique opportunity for therapists to refine their approach and gain clinical skills in effectively addressing the complexities associated with sensate focus for psychogenic erectile dysfunction.
