The “Classic” Dysfunctions - The PLISSIT
Model of Sex Therapy |
|
Many
years ago, the American psychologist
Jack Annon developed a simple
model illustrating the fact that most
people with sexual problems do not need
an intensive course of therapy. He used
the acronym PLISSIT for four basic forms
of sex therapy: Permission, Limited
Information, Specific Suggestions, and
Intensive Therapy (Jack Annon,
"Behavioral Treatment of Sexual
Problems", 2 vols., Harper & Row -
Medical Department, 1976)
