The treatment by a qualified sex therapist of a sexually dysfunctional couple referred by a family or marital therapist often significantly factilitates the overall therapeutic progress. When "successful," relevant effects of sex therapy include a better dyadic relationship, optimism about therapy in general, and greater willingness to change, beneficial ripple effects on other family members often occur. Resistance by partners or other family members is considered, as is the use of "unsuccessful" sex therapy as a diagnostic tool. Questions as to whether sex therapy should follow, interrupt, or proceed concurrently with family/marital therapy are discussed.
由合格的性治疗师对家庭或婚姻治疗师转介的性功能障碍夫妇进行治疗，往往能显著促进整体治疗进程。当性治疗“成功”时，其相关效果包括更好的二元关系、对一般治疗的乐观态度以及更大的改变意愿，对其他家庭成员也常常会产生有益的连锁反应。会考虑伴侣或其他家庭成员的抵触情绪，以及将“不成功”的性治疗用作诊断工具的情况。还会讨论性治疗应在家庭/婚姻治疗之后、中断还是与之同时进行的问题。
