If you work with couples, this episode is for you! Have you ever worked with a couple that struggles with getting on the same page with sex and intimacy? Maybe one partner expresses a desire for more sex and the other is all touched out at the end of the day? If so, you’re in the right place, as we discuss all things desire discrepancy! Jessica shares the difference between arousal and desire, common myths about desire, including some that may surprise you, how to work with desire discrepancy in session, specific tools and techniques, and resources for those that want to learn more.
