Time Limited Therapy With Sexually Dysfunctional Sexually Assaulted Women

Abstract
The treatment of sexually dysfunctional sexually assaulted women has routinely been ignored. Preliminary work with 68 assaulted women experiencing sexual difficulties indicates that a time-limited, behaviorally-oriented sexual dysfunction treatment package is effective in ameliorating some of their sexual problems. Treatment gains were greatest when the package was exercised in a group therapy format rather than an individual format. Therapeutic progress was found to be maintained at 3 months post-treatment. While some generalization to nonsexual problem areas immediately post-treatment was found, these gains were not maintained over time. Additional therapeutic issues that remain to be addressed are noted.
