Join me (via Zoom) and the Integrative Sex Therapy Institute for a day of training on Intersectionality and Sexism in Relationships:

Promoting Sexual Health & Pleasure with an Intersectional Lens

10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m

Social inequities contribute to sexual dysfunction and create barriers for oppressed and minoritized groups to access pleasure. Sex therapists are in a unique position to address the effects of systemic oppression by using an intersectional analysis to help create practices that build resilience and resistance to oppression and help the communities we serve access and experience sexual pleasure.

Sexism in Relationships: COVID-19 and the Impact on Working Women

2:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m
Outdated gender roles have put women, and particularly women who are mothers, under extraordinary stress during the pandemic. The unequal distribution of labor in the home is magnified during the pandemic and the mass exodus of women forced to leave the workforce is causing immediate economic and psychological stress and deepening inequities. In this workshop, we will take a deep dive in understanding how we got here, and what we, as sex therapists can do about it.

Low desire is the most common reason women come to see me for sex therapy. 

Why is low desire common for women? Well it depends a lot on how you view desire, but here are some reasons: 

* Women have been conditioned to tune out the sensations in our bodies so we don’t feel desire even when we have it

* Society gives us constant confusing messages about our bodies and our sexuality so we often find sex stressful 

* No one tells us that our sexual response cycle is different than men’s until we start looking for answers 

* Women’s desire in long term relationships tends to go down over time

* Women’s desire is strongly influenced by external factors, so job stress, relationship conflict, political stressors can all affect our experience of desire. 

Fortunately, you don’t have to figure out all of this stuff for yourself. I'm giving a workshop that teaches women how to reignite their sexual desire. 

IGNITE: Rekindle your Sexual Spark is designed to teach women how to reignite their sexual desire. 

I’m an AASECT certified sex therapist with decades of clinical experience, and I’ve compiled the best tools and strategies available to provide you with the knowledge and understanding you need to rekindle your sexual spark: 

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to:

● Tap into the sexual desire you already have.

● Understand your desire and arousal patterns

● Own your orgasm, by knowing what you want and how to ask for it. 

● Get out of your head during sex and be present in the moment.

● Stop letting body image issues get in your way of your pleasure 

What you can expect: 

This virtual workshop is held via Zoom, webinar style, so participants videos won't be visible.

Participants who register before 10/9/20 will receive a Google form to able to ask questions anonymously prior to the event. Answers will be included in event programming. 

Participants will receive a recording, in case you miss the live event, and a workbook to personalize and deepen your learning.
