How to differentiate among the diagnoses in sexual disorder
how to differentiate among the diagnoses in sexual disorder categories and among the diagnoses in substance-related and addictive disorders. Understanding how to recognize and treat sexual dysfunctions is important because many clients enter treatment to address sexual concerns. In addition, while substance-related disorders could exist independently, they often co-occur with other diagnoses (i.e., they occur in addition to other conditions, such as depression and anxiety) and are another reason people frequently seek counseling services.
