WHAT TO DO WHEN MARRIAGE GOES WRONG: PSYCHOSEXUALLY TRAINED DOCTORS AND PSYCHIATRISTS
Psychosexual medicine is a fairly new branch of the medical profession in the UK and at the moment has attracted very few practitioners full time. The majority of ‘experts’ working in this field are consultant psychiatrists who, because of their understanding of psychological and emotional problems, tend to deal with sexual problems too. Many do not particularly want to deal with sexual problems and their patients share their reluctance. Few people with sexual or marital problems are mentally ill, and psychiatrists are doctors who deal mainly with mental illness. Going to a psychiatrist still has something of a stigma attached to it and there is always the suggestion (not from the doctor, of course) that one might actually have something ‘wrong’ with one’s personality. A few psychiatrists offer psychoanalysis for such problems but only a tiny fraction of 1 per cent of all marital problems need or receive true psychoanalysis.
