Efficacy of Online Psychoeducation and Cognitive Behavior Therapy on Female Sexual Interest/Arousal Disorder: Single Case Design

This case report of brief research communication utilized single case design aimed at studying the efficacy of online psychoeducation and cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) on female sexual interest/arousal disorder. Arizona Sexual Experience Scale (ASEX) was used for data collection. Findings of the study showed that client’s pretest and posttest results significantly differ after online psychoeducation and CBT; sexual arousal, sex drive (desire), vaginal lubrication, orgasm, and orgasm satisfaction significantly improved. Furthermore, significant improvement in the frequency of sexual relationship was found. Outcome of this study should guide clinical psychologists in the area of intervention for sexual disorder, especially among women. It should also serve as a reference material for women suffering with sexual dysfunction and serve as an encouragement not to die in silence but seek for professional help.
