Helping People with Sexual Problems is a practical guide to enable all clinical health care professionals, whether doctors, nurses, or other clinicians, to assess, understand and attempt to treat their patient's sexual problems, paying attention to both organic and psychological aspects of aetiology and management. It helps them to know when to refer on to specialist services, for difficult or complex cases, and to whom patients would best be referred.
