A Primer on Sex Therapy

-
Image
Sex therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy designed to help individuals and couples address issues related to sexual function, intimacy, and satisfaction. It's a field that combines psychological principles with a deep understanding of human sexuality. A cornerstone of sex therapy is a foundational knowledge of the sexual response cycle, a model that describes the physiological and psychological stages of sexual arousal and activity. The most widely recognized model, developed by Masters and Johnson, includes four phases: excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution. Understanding these stages is crucial for identifying where a dysfunction may be occurring. Sexual dysfunctions are common concerns addressed in therapy. These include difficulties with desire (e.g., hypoactive sexual desire disorder), arousal (e.g., female sexual arousal disorder, erectile dysfunction), orgasm (e.g., anorgasmia, premature ejaculation), and pain (e.g., dyspareunia, vaginismus).

The Green Beginnings of Santa

  When we picture Santa Claus today, we see a jolly, stout man in a bright crimson suit trimmed with white fur. It feels as though he has always dressed this way, but the "traditional" red suit is actually a relatively modern invention—the result of centuries of evolving folklore, artistic interpretation, and clever marketing. ​The Green Beginnings ​The historical inspiration for Santa, St. Nicholas of Myra, lived in the 4th century. As a Greek bishop, he would have worn traditional clerical robes, likely in shades of white, gold, or muted reds.   ​Fast forward to the 17th century in England, and we find Father Christmas. He wasn't a gift-bringer then, but a spirit of peace and feasting. In early illustrations, he was often depicted in a long, loose green robe lined with fur, symbolizing the coming of spring and the resilience of nature during winter.   ​The Shift to Red ​The transition to red began in the 19th century. In 1823, the poem "A Visit from St. Nichol...
