That sex is the most important thing in life, it is not, as his friend and afterward rival far less known Carl Jung has found (1875-1961), very few therapists follow Jung nowadays.
Here are some of Jung’s perspectives on working with sexual concerns (from Jung and Sex, which includes a more extensive and specific primer of depth-oriented approaches to treatment):

Here are some of Jung’s perspectives on working with sexual concerns (from Jung and Sex, which includes a more extensive and specific primer of depth-oriented approaches to treatment):
- One encounters sexuality everywhere; thus in anything one is involved, their sexuality will appear too.
- Pressures to conform or deny natural instincts create neuroses and psychological splits between inner needs and outer demands.
- Fear of complexes is a deeply-rooted prejudice; complexes are normal and basic parts of the psyche.
- Sexual symptoms also reflect universal issues of the culture; many symptoms do not belong exclusively to the patient.
- Every important affective event becomes complex; complexes are signposts to the unconscious.
- Denial of instincts and complexes increases the power of the unconscious.
- Complexes and struggles manifest in places where one is most weak or less adapted.
- Individuation and a new level of consciousness are possible through the integration of the erotic complexes.
- Must expect powerful emotions and difficulties to congregate around sex because it is where adaptation is least complete and where one faces the most challenges to the natural expression.
- Sexuality can express deep levels of the psyche’s symbolic, archetypal, and mythic elements.
- Repellent things belong to the psyche and are natural.
- The patient senses something repellent in their own psyche; the shadow is a difficult moral challenge to ego consciousness.
- Psyche is purposive and directed; symptoms have meaning.
- Psyche cannot be defined by categories or labels.
- Illnesses affecting patients are mostly unconscious attempts to cure themselves.
- All-simplifying theories serve injustice to the patient and the soul.
- No single method of treatment; not mechanical or procedural work.
- Therapists must first know how symptoms help or serve their patients in some unconscious or paradoxical way.
- The main concern is being non-reductive toward the psyche; viewing the psyche as complex and teleological.
- The treatment goal is integration and rebalancing of inner conflicts through conscious awareness.
