Description
Description: This workshop offers practical guidance for therapists working with couples facing desire discrepancies, sexless marriages, and infidelity. Drawing from research and decades of clinical experience, it explores how low sexual desire stems from biological, relational, and psychological factors—and how arousal can often precede desire. Emphasis is placed on empathy, accountability, and clear communication as foundations for restoring intimacy and rebuilding trust.
Syllabus Description: One in three couples experience a sexual desire gap, a difference leads to infidelity or divorce. Additionally, the compelling statistic that one out of ten couples has a sexless marriage makes it apparent why so many couples are losing touch. Learn how to help couples bring passion back into marriage. Also, learn how to help couples heal from infidelity.
Educational Objectives:
- To describe three methods for bridging the sexual desire gap.
- To describe three techniques for healing from infidelity.
