Our Sex Therapy Certificate is the only sex therapy certificate program offered for continuing education credits in San Francisco and is among one of the few offered on the West Coast.
It is also one of the few programs offered by an accredited institution nationally. These courses are taught by faculty from CIIS' human sexuality doctoral program, doctoral level American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT) certified sex educators and sex therapists, and clinical sexologists who are leaders in their respective professions and scholarly activities.
CIIS' strengths and history of contributions in the fields of counseling psychology, integral health and integral pedagogy, and sexuality studies form the basis for our approach to the certificate. We strive to provide an integral view of the fields of sex therapy and sex education, including multiple perspectives and philosophies, rooted in a sex positive view and affirmation of the diversity of sexual practices, experiences, and identities of our communities and clients.
