This case study demonstrates the challenges and possibilities of working on a sexual relationship with a single client and provides an example of integration of sex therapy within the ethical and theoretical framework of a collaborative systemic approach. It illustrates the author's view on the therapeutic relationship involving the expertise of both the client and the therapist. A model for integration of systemic approach and sex therapy is proposed.
