A professional lecture & workshop for individual and/or couple therapists, about a major issue in relationships – intimacy and sexuality

A professional lecture & workshop for individual and/or couple therapists,

Therpay focused on body • mind • spirit – in different marital dynamics

In the CPD workshop we will study, explore and practice how to work in the therapy room with this major subject in relationship.

how to help individuals and couples to approach the issue, to see, feel and explore the differences between intimacy and sexuality. and to help couples to deal and improve their intimacy with exercises from body psychotherapy world with movements, imagery work, breathing and touch.

An important part of the work of the individual / couples therapist is – identifying the couple dynamics. For example: when one partner verbally hurts the other, the other is hurt and reacts with aggression or detachment, which creates a counter-reaction of further aggression or distance, which can lead to a marital crisis. In the training we will explore, experience, learn and understand different marital patterns.

We will study about sexual problems / lack of sexuality, that can arise from various reasons and we will focus on the connection between intimacy and sexuality. We will exercise with pairs in the breakup rooms different techniques of working with couples and individuals with this important topic.
