Help Couples Transform Their Relationships —Sign up for my new online workshop REKINDLING DESIRE

Learn how to integrate sexuality in overall couples therapy.

Most couples therapists receive very little (if any) training in sexuality. Contrary to popular belief, sexual problems are not always the result of relational problems — and working to improve the emotional relationship may do little to improve the sex.

This training prepares you for working with the most challenging sexual dilemmas couples face. A seven-part online experience developed by world renowned sex and couples therapist Esther Perel, Rekindling Desire provides tools to help both the therapist and client to shift into a new vision for the couple.

You will virtually sit next to Esther in her office as she shows you innovative strategies to help couples unlock sexual blocks, take emotional risks, and enhance their erotic bond.

Using case examples and experiential exercises, Rekindling Desire addresses couples from all sexual orientations. Participate for your own professional or personal development. Get the newest in clinical research and learn skills to apply to your practice.

LEARN TO:

• Use the sexual relationship as a lens into the individual and the couple’s dynamics.
• Help couples balance their need for security and closeness with their quest for separateness and passion. 
• Bring a nuanced therapeutic approach to work with extra-marital relations (past or present, fantasized or real, secret or revealed).
• Utilize experiential exercises to cultivate eroticism between partners and help them take emotional risks to open up sexual communication.
• Show couples how to use fantasy as a healthy and enriching imaginative tool.
• Develop strategies for couples to bring a sense of aliveness and vitality to their relation and cultivate playfulness, anticipation and mystery in and out of the bedroom.
• Facilitate clients voicing their erotic longings and actively move beyond their comfort zone into an expansive and fully charged sexuality.
