Short-Term Groups for Women on Sexuality
When sex is good, it’s just another pleasurable aspect of a relationship. But when problematic, its importance becomes larger than life.
Many women feel uncomfortable about their sexual selves. Their issues may include difficulty achieving orgasms, low sexual desire, sexual inhibitions, painful intercourse, or traumatic experiences.
Many women feel so much shame and alienation – and are convinced that everyone else out there is having a marvelous sex life – that it may take them months or years to seek help.
This short-term workshop for women is a powerful experience. The workshop provides a safe environment where women can share their thoughts and feelings, understand female/male physiology, and receive explicit information and ideas for assignments they will practice in the privacy of their own homes.
This 10-session workshop is based on the book For Yourself: The Fulfillment of Female Sexuality, by Lonnie Barbach, Ph.D., a classic in the field. These groups are usually composed of six to eight women who meet for ten 100-minute sessions. Each session follows a structured program of videos, PowerPoint presentations, discussion, and homework assignments.
