Description
Do love relationships have to be such a mystery? New brain research is transforming our
understanding of basic neurological differences and similarities between male and female
sexuality and love relationships.??Thanks to advances in genetics and non-invasive brain-imaging
technology, there has been a revolution in neuroscientific research and theory concerning
human sexuality. This workshop will cover the neurobiology of male and female sexuality.
Participants will gain an understanding into the neuro-hormones and how those impact sexual
relationships. Clinical research regarding attachment and self-differentiation theory will be
shown to significantly contribute to healthy sexual functioning. Best practices will guide the
clinician and lay counselor in helping couples overcome sexual dysfunctions and learn strategies
to maximize marital sexual bliss.
