Book excerpt: "Human sexuality counseling is an area rarely addressed directly in either the human sexuality literature or the professional counseling literature. Human sexuality textbooks generally consist of the fundamentals of sexuality, specifically the physiological aspects. The standards of the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) now include specific standards that address the need for educating counseling students about human sexuality counseling, specifically in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling (Section 5 D.2.m), Marriage, Couple, and Family Counseling (Section 5. F. 2.e.) and Rehabilitation Counseling (Section 5 H.2.h). Further, there is a belief by some that "information is enough." According to this approach, all that needs to be covered in sex education classes in secondary schools is basic and introductory facts and data. That approach may then carry over through a counseling student's undergraduate coursework too. By the time that the counseling student reaches graduate school, they too may have integrated the belief that "information is enough" into their own belief system. Researchers have found, however, time and time again that training in sexuality-related pathology is too limited and that "information" alone is not enough in terms of which topics are addressed in counseling related to sexuality (Blount et al., 2017)"--
