International Sex Therapy Program-1

Exclusively for psychotherapists, counselors, nurses and
doctors who want to help their patients with sexual problems.

The need for sex therapy education around the globe came to our attention when we began getting emails from many different countries asking about our programs.

Our other programs are designed to meet certification requirements for the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT). Unfortunately, AASECT is unable to certify sex therapists outside of the US, Canada, Mexico, and Israel*. Realizing there was a need, psychologist and sex therapist Dr. Stephanie Buehler designed a certificate program in sex therapy for post-graduate professionals around the world. The Buehler Institute (TBI) is approved by the American Psychological Association and other professional organizations to offer continuing education--meaning that TBI holds to the highest standards for post-graduate education.

What makes the sexology certificate unique is that it focuses on the practical essentials of sex therapy. Dr. Buehler will share with you how she approaches her own patients using lectures, research articles, case examples, and other media.

In this program you will learn:
Sexual development across the lifespan
The sexological ecosystemic approach to understanding sexuality and behaviors
Culture, religion, and family influences on sexuality
Definition of sexual health
Triage of simple vs. complex cases using the “PLISSIT” model
Diagnosing and treating women’s sexual problems

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the difference between the International Program and other programs offered by The Buehler Institute.

The International Program includes 105 hours of online instruction, while our Core Knowledge Program has 75 hours. The Blended Learning Program is intended for people who are seeking AASECT certification, which requires that people have 45 hours of live learning.

2. Is the live training offered with the Blended Learning Program available via Zoom because of COVID? Can I take the Blended Learning Program so that I can attend the live training?

Yes, we are currently on Zoom. We are operating on Pacific Standard Time (PST) so that may be an issue but we have had people literally halfway across the globe from each other attending.

3. Why can't I get AASECT certification? I am licensed where I practice.

AASECT made a decision several years ago that it was simply too difficult to ascertain whether people applying from other countries had actually met its rather stringent requirements. Materials were being sent in a multitude of languages, e.g., college transcripts and syllabi from courses. We are primarily a volunteer organization and our volunteers, though dedicated, found they simply could not support certification of people overseas.

4. What exactly am I getting if I take the International Program?

You will receive a certificate of completion from The Buehler Institute. The Buehler Institute is approved by the American Psychological Association to provide continuing education hours. The Buehler Institute is responsible for all content. The American Psychological Association requires much more documentation to prove worthiness than does AASECT as well as an annual report to keep providers accountable. You can proudly display your certificate knowing that it is approved by one of the most respected psychological associations, led by a psychologist who has an international reputation for her clinical work.

5. Can I practice as a sex therapist with the certificate from your program?

The answer is, it depends on your location. In some parts of the world, psychotherapists are not required to have a license, while in others they do. Even in the States, there is no license per se for practicing sex therapy. One holds a license as a psychologist, social worker, marriage and family therapist, etc. and then adds on sex therapy as a specialty. We highly recommend doing some research to make sure that you are following any laws regarding practice.

6. Can I call myself a sexuality counselor or coach?

Again, this will depend on your location. If you are a medical doctor, nurse, or other healthcare provide, then you can likely counsel your patients regarding sexual issues. Coaching is a completely different topic. Again, in the States coaching is not regulated. Sometimes people who do not have a license will set up a coaching practice.

7. How can I get more information?

Simple! You can email info@learnsextherapy.com any time.

Disclaimer

While The Buehler Institute strives to provide a thorough program to help you counsel people with sexual issues, it does not warrant that the certificate issued on the completion of the program is sufficient to meet the requirements of licensure in any jurisdiction. You, and not The Buehler Institute, are responsible for determining and complying with all jurisdictional requirements for providing counseling services to the public.
