Perelman received his MS, M.Phil. and Ph.D. degrees in clinical psychology from Columbia University. Perelman was Chief Intern in Medical Psychology at Duke University Medical Center, followed by a Post-Doctoral Fellowship studying sex therapy with H.S. Kaplan.
Career edit
Following decades as a successful Manhattan psychotherapist and academic, in 2012, Perelman founded the MAP Education and Research Foundation. The Foundation educates healthcare providers about the importance of maintaining a biomedical-psychosocial and cultural approach to the diagnosis, and treatment of sexual disorders. His trademark registered Sexual Tipping Point Model was donated to the Foundation.[4][5]
Perelman is a former President of the Society for Sex Therapy and Research. He has been elected a Fellow of the Sexual Medicine Society of North America[6] the International Society for Study of Women's Sexual Health, and the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality.[7]
In a recent interview with the International Online Sexology Supervisors, Michael Perelman reflects on the evolution of sex therapy over the past half century, drawing on his extensive experience as both an observer and a catalyst of change in the field. Perelman stresses that simply imparting knowledge is not enough to effect real change in patients. As he notes, "You can't just beat your patients on the head with your knowledge and expect it to make a difference." Instead, successful therapy requires a holistic approach that combines deep understanding of the patient's unique situation with effective communication and problem-solving skills. [8]
