Exceptional Relationships.

A shared life can become truly exceptional when there is also a marriage of security and adventure, connection and autonomy, the cozy and the erotic. Long term commitment to a life partner is for many the greatest undertaking they will ever encounter.

Commitment to a partner can be incredibly challenging. If you struggle with stress around money, kids or work responsibilities, your sexual expression or emotional intimacy, you may be feeling uncertain of your commitment, wondering if you are falling out of love.

Your relationship is not defective or dysfunctional you simply haven’t developed the skills that commitment requires. Most of us never learned how to express ourselves in ways that allow us to engage in conflict and assert our needs and wants in a way that brings us closer.

Couples thrive when…

  • Partners feel safe in each other’s presence

  • Partners can share their inner selves with one another

  • There is a high degree of trust

  • There is laughter & lightness

  • There is conflict, but quick repair & learning

  • Partners can take self responsibility

  • There is a willingness to learn from mistakes

  • There is a desire to see each other flourish

  • Partners can admit to human realities like jealousy, competitiveness, & insecurity

Into me see.

Happiness and pleasure become accessible when we learn how to navigate triggers and release the control patterns that prevent us from being intimate with another. Many people confuse intimacy with sex.

Intimacy is about revealing oneself to another. The less defended we are, the more capable of being vulnerable and therefore intimate we become.  This undefended state of being allows us to feel save and accepted for who we are. When we risk being seen in our weaknesses and flaws, in the desires we barely dare to acknowledge to ourselves, we can reclaim the parts of ourselves we previously denied. We chose to deny these parts because we were shamed or blamed and we concluded that those must be bad or wrong.

The more intimate we become the safer we become. This freedom allows us to explore sexually in ways we may never have thought possible. Sex becomes more playful, lustful, and heart-full. We can take risks that we could only fantasize about in the past.

Let us support you in increasing your capacity to love sexually.

“Learning about our triggers & what causes them was key for us to go from reactivity to communication. Now we can step back & process our feelings instead of killing each other”.
