Description:

One out of every three couples struggles with mismatched sexual desire—a formula for marital disaster. When one spouse is sexually dissatisfied and the other is oblivious, unconcerned, or uncaring, sex isn’t the only casualty; a sense of emotional connection can also disappear.

Complicating matters is that fact that many couples (and some therapists) feel uncomfortable discussing sex and remain focused on “Red Herring” issues. This workshop offers a hands-on, collaborative model for addressing the "elephant in the room" and restoring sexual and emotional connection.

Educational Objectives:

1. Motivate the lower-desire partner to feel more empathy for their higher-desire spouse
2. End the vicious cycle of rejection that leads to anger, more refusal, and more anger
3. Persuade each partner to take personal responsibility for breaking patterns that lead to emotional and physical disconnection
