Description:
Desire differences between partners can often be the
fuel that motivates couples to engage in either marital
therapy, extramarital behavior or both. Loss of desire
may be expressed by one or both partners as "I
love my partner, but I am not in love anymore. "
The thrill is gone and I can take sex or leave it."
It is estimated that sexual desire disorders affect
upwards of 20% of the population and is on the rise.
In this presentation Rebecca Dnistran, MA will review
what desire is, how to ask your clients about their
sexual relationship, review gender differences in
desire, quantify an intimate encounter using two diagrams,
consider the relational factors that enhance desire
and outline some recent research on "exceptional
sex".
