Marital counseling has been prevailing in Taiwan over the last two decades, whereas sex counseling has just begun and is not yet well recognized. The purpose of this study was to stress the importance and necessity of sex counseling and what it was like from the author's counseling experience focusing on women's sexual self-awareness.
The frequently seen female sexual problems were briefly introduced, and the four cases were analyzed and discussed. Four clients, middle-aged females who took the initiative for sex counseling and revealed their sex life and sexuality, started to become sexually self-aware, identifying their own sexuality in the counseling process. Their homogeneities were as follows: initiative and high motivation, general marital problems presented first, lack of sex communication between the couple, sex life living up to the expectation or demand of the culture, middle-age wake-up, external stimulation, and no sexual dysfunction but poor sex knowledge. Five major interventions were applied according to the clients' situations: sexual self-awareness, sexual identity, grief work, empowerment, and masturbation training.
Exploration and discussion of sexual awareness and sexual identity are encouraged in the initial sessions in order to facilitate progress in counseling. Additionally, there might be some limitations to counseling female clients in Taiwan, such as transference and counter transference, the counselor's sex, age and marital status.
