Developmental Sexuality: Sex & Aging

  • South Shore Sexual Health Center 1212 Hancock St. Suite #205 Quincy, MA, 02169 United States (map)

Presented by: Stephen Duclos, LMFT, LMHC, CRC, CST-S

From the womb until end-of-life, our sexuality never stops evolving and changing. The courses in the Developmental Sexuality Series look not only at the biological and physical aspects of sexual development, but also relational, spiritual, and emotional dimensions. Students will examine how each area of development affects the others in ways that either encourage or impede further growth. In this course, students will learn about development from the years of later adulthood through the end of life. Students will consider both the accumulated sadness and unique strength and resiliency older adults often bring to sex therapy. The role of ageism and ableism will also be discussed, including an examination of how care providers, adult children, and communities such as nursing homes, assisted living facilities, etc. can be helpful or harmful towards the continuing sexual expression of older adults.

This course meets the criteria for the following Core Knowledge Content Areas: B, E, I
