Common questions about becoming an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist

What are the requirements to become an AASECT-certified sex therapist?

To become a Certified Sex Therapist (CST) through AASECT, you must meet the following qualifications:

  • Be a licensed mental health professional (e.g., LCSW, LMFT, LPC, PhD, PsyD).
  • Complete 150 hours of AASECT-approved sex therapy education covering key topics such as human sexuality, sexual dysfunctions, ethics, and medical factors affecting sexuality.

  • Gain 300 hours of direct sex therapy clinical experience with clients.
  • Submit an application to AASECT for review and approval.

How do I find an AASECT-certified sex therapy supervisor?

AASECT maintains a directory of Certified Sex Therapy Supervisors (CST-S) on their website. You can also search for supervisors who specialize in your areas of interest (e.g., trauma-informed sex therapy, couples therapy, EMDR). As a sex therapy supervisor-in-training, I offer AASECT supervision to clinicians working toward certification.


How long does it take to complete AASECT certification?

The timeline varies depending on your current experience and education. On average, it takes 1.5 to 3 years to complete the required coursework, clinical hours, and supervision.


Can I get AASECT supervision online, or does it have to be in person?

Yes! Many supervisors, including myself, offer virtual AASECT sex therapy supervision, making it more accessible for clinicians nationwide.


What is the cost of becoming an AASECT-certified sex therapist?

Costs vary based on supervision fees, coursework, and application fees. Here’s an estimated breakdown:

  • Supervision fees: $100–$250 per session (50 hours required).
  • Sex therapy courses: $2,000–$5,000 (varies by provider).
  • Application fee: $300 for AASECT certification.

I offer affordable supervision packages and CEU courses to help clinicians meet these requirements.


How many supervision hours do I need for AASECT certification?

You need 50 hours of AASECT-approved sex therapy supervision. These hours must be completed with a Certified Sex Therapy Supervisor (CST-S) or a supervisor-in-training under a CST-S (like myself).


Do I need to be a licensed mental health professional to become AASECT certified?

Yes. You must hold a valid mental health license (e.g., LCSW, LPC, LMFT, PhD, PsyD). If you’re not yet licensed, you may complete coursework in advance but must obtain your license before applying for certification.


Can I use past clinical experience toward my AASECT certification requirements?

AASECT only counts clinical hours that are supervised by an AASECT-approved supervisor. If you have prior experience working with sexual health concerns, you may still need to complete additional supervised hours.


What coursework is required for AASECT certification?

The 150 hours of AASECT-approved sex therapy education must include:

  • Human Sexuality & Anatomy
  • Sexual Orientation & Gender Diversity
  • Sexual Dysfunctions & Disorders
  • Ethical Issues in Sex Therapy
  • Couples & Relationship Therapy
  • Trauma-Informed Sex Therapy & EMDR

I offer AASECT-approved CEU courses to help meet these educational requirements.


Does AASECT certification help increase career opportunities?

Yes! Becoming an AASECT-certified sex therapist can lead to higher client demand, increased credibility, and expanded professional opportunities. Certified sex therapists are sought after for private practice, teaching, consulting, and professional speaking engagements.


Is EMDR or trauma-informed therapy relevant to AASECT certification?

Yes. Many clients seeking sex therapy have experienced trauma. Integrating EMDR and trauma-informed approaches into sex therapy can enhance treatment outcomes. I offer consultation for EMDR certification in addition to sex therapy supervision.


What is the process for applying for AASECT certification once I meet all requirements?

Once you’ve completed the education, supervision, and clinical requirements, you must:

  1. Submit your application to AASECT along with documentation of your training and supervision hours.
  2. Pay the application fee
  3. Undergo a review process
