Dr.
Fern Arden, Our Founder
|
With personal
vision of a facility providing treatment
for sexual problems that would ideally combine
a well-trained professional staff with a
personalized, authentic course of therapy,
Dr. Fern Arden founded
Abel 2 Sex Counseling Center in 1991.
Dr. Arden wanted to create an environment
that was client-centered. Catering to the
needs of the people courageous enough to
seek our help, it was crucial they feel
safe, respected and supported every step
of the way.
"I tried to imagine what I would want
to experience if I was going to sex therapy",
Dr. Arden explained. "I thought about
what fears and anxieties a person could
have and what we could do to alleviate them.
I am satisfied we've accomplished our goals
in this regard."

When a client or clients at Abel 2 Sex
Counseling Center meet with Dr. Arden,
they experience a woman of knowledge and insight.
The doctor couples this with her witty pronouncements
and wise admonishments. Though humor helps with
perspective, it is with a guiding hand that she
helps individuals and couples find the very best
in themselves and their sex lives.
Dr. Fern M. Arden, F.A.A.C.S., D.A.P.A. received
her masters degree from Queens College in New
York and completed her doctorate in 1996 at the
Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality
in San Francisco, California. She is a Board Certified
Clinical Sexologist and a Clinical Fellow of The
American Academy of Clinical Sexologists. In 1995,
she became a Diplomate of the American Board of
Sexology. Followed in 1998, she also became a
Diplomate of the American Psychotherapy Association.
Dr. Arden has written and produced a well-reviewed
instructional video, Sex Therapy: an Intimate
Experience. She has lectured widely on subjects
ranging from 'Sexuality and Aging', 'Teen Pregnancy',
'Sex Surrogate Therapy', and most recently, 'He
Has a Headache: the Modern Sexual Relationship'.
Dr. Arden has designed 'sexual aids' to enhance
physical pleasure for couples.
The expertise Dr. Arden brought to treating sexual
disorders contributed significantly to the
outstanding reputation attributed to Abel 2 Counseling.
She has been an innovator in the development of
the most original cognitive/behavioral treatment
procedures and materials presently employed in
clinical practice. Her surrogate-partner programs
are so effective they are actually copied by other
facilities in New York. What cannot be duplicated
is the extraordinary staff who implement our programs
with responsibility and devotion to their work
at Abel 2 Sex Counseling Center, New York City.
