Given the societal taboos against discussing sexuality especially when it centers on older adults, this workshop will offer a unique opportunity to apply current research and resources to clinical practice with older adults. The focus of this highly-engaging presentation is on improving knowledge, skills, and attitudes regarding the impacts of aging on sexuality, the sexual challenges of chronic illness, and the possibilities of pleasure for older adults with an emphasis on application to working with an aging population.
