ELIGIBILITY

The Society welcomes potential members who are engaged in the field of sexology or human sexuality, including those who have primary professional registration in a number of areas, including professionals such as GPs, Occupational Therapists, Sexual Health Physicians, Social Workers, Psychiatrists, Nurses, Midwives, Psychologists, Counsellors, Psychotherapists, Teachers, Advocates, and students working towards a sexological qualification. Members agree to the aims and objectives of the Society and to abide by the Code of Ethics and Conduct.

People who work as sexologists, particularly in psychosexual therapy and sexuality education, can find themselves working as sole-practitioners in isolation from other professionals. Membership of the Society provides you with access to professional development, supervision and mentoring, and a community of like-minded individuals who can offer support in your career.
