To become "non-vanilla"

Too many therapists who have little knowledge of the behaviors in question nonetheless attempt to treat individuals who engage in sexually unusual behavior. This book is both a primer and a warning. It shows therapists how their eyes must be open and non-judgemental if they are to be of any help at all. In my private practice, I often lend this book to clients to derive the benefit of its understanding as we mutually explore the behaviors in question. Sargent's chapter is an absolute gem.
