Presented at TOTA 2014 Mountain Central Conference I attended the educational session entitled Embracing Sexuality as an ADL presented by Asfia Mohammed at the 2014 TOTA Conference. I chose to attend this topic because it is one that is very important, yet many occupational therapists are uncomfortable with the subject of sexuality. Asfia first discussed the different definitions of sexuality provided by AOTA and the World Health Organization (WHO). She then discussed that many implications of different diseases can affect a persons sexuality. For example, someone diagnosed with cancer may have a lack of energy, infertility, pelvic floor dysfunction and body appearance issues. All of these factors could affect a persons sexuality and this is where occupational therapists need to step in and help. Asfia also mentioned that sexuality doesnt just need to be addressed by the occupational therapistit needs to be a team approach. A clients general practitioner, physical therapist, psychologist, nurses, and even sex therapists can aide in the process of regaining skills needed to engage in meaningful sexuality. The interventions that Asfia mentioned focused on health promotion, remediation, and modification. Some intervention considerations that an occupational therapist must acknowledge are: making sure the client is in a safe place to address sexuality and therapeutic use of self to establish sufficient rapport before discussing this topic. This presentation was concluded by ways that the subject of sexuality can become more readily addressed. One way to increase education about this ADL is to address it in the educational curriculum within occupational therapy schools (and continuing education) so that its not a scary subject and you can build your skill set to address sexuality issues with a client if they arise. Overall, this presentation was very eye-opening and I am excited to continue to go to conferences every year to increase my skill set as an occupational therapy student!
