Program Details

For couples and individuals of all sexual orientations.

Why does great sex so often fade for couples who claim to love each other as much as ever? Is it possible to want what we already have? Why does intimacy not guarantee great sex? Guided by therapist Esther Perel and her bold new take on intimacy and sex, this workshop probes the bonds and conflicts of love and desire. In an atmosphere free of judgment, we learn to

  • Balance our need for security and closeness with the quest for separateness and passion
  • Understand how our emotional history shapes our erotic blueprints
  • Recognize why more emotional intimacy can lead to less sex
  • Cultivate eroticism, playfulness, and a sense of mystery in and out of the bedroom
  • Keep desire alive after the kids are born
  • Release erotic blocks and put the “X” back into sex.

Come unlock your erotic intelligence in a program that welcomes clinical professionals as well as laypeople.
