Abstract
If we work from the assumption that sexual symptoms are functional rather than dysfunctional, we can more fully exploit the opportunity for rapid uncovering therapy created by the symptom focus and the assignment structure of sex therapy. This objective is facilitated by an ego-analytic reevaluation of the way that the repression model is used in conventional uncovering therapy. To illustrate this ego-analytic strategy, it is applied in the hypothetical treatment of a couple who were not capable of or motivated for conventional uncovering therapy and for whom the bypassing approach of strictly behavioral sex therapy had failed.
