Sexuality And Intimacy Intensives

with Michael Longo, LMFT & AASECT Certified Sex Therapist

Deep intimacy is created not discovered and we all have the power to create the love relationship we want. An intimacy intensive unlocks the positive power of relationship by revealing the hidden patterns that get us “stuck” or disconnected and offering a pathway to quickly restore and deepen connection with our partner.

In a romantic relationship, attachment and sexuality are intertwined. Difficulties in one area can affect the other and limit connection. A Sexuality and Intimacy Intensive with Michael Longo, Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Marriage & Family Therapist, helps couples to understand, repair, and expand their practice of emotional and physical connection by:

  • Understanding the forces that drive disruption, conflict, and disconnection.

  • Discovering how differences are the key to deep understanding.

  • Learning how disruption is a gateway to deep intimacy.

  • Appreciating the healing power of tender touch and how it can reignite desire and sexual expression.

You may be a candidate for an intensive if you:

  • Have become stuck in a pattern of conflict.

  • Struggle to communicate.

  • Are experiencing difficulties in your practice of sexual expression.

  • Want a deeper connection with your partner.

An intimacy intensive is different than the incremental, one-step-at-a-time approach of traditional couples therapy. Intimacy intensives pack months of couples therapy into one or two days and are transformative because they:

  1. are custom designed to designed to meet the unique needs of each couple.

  2. immediately create a new understanding of the relationship, its difficulties, and why previous attempts at improvement have failed.

  3. quickly restore connectivity by installing a process for relationship repair and the emotional and physical connectivity that is necessary for deep intimacy.

 Intensives are delivered in ½ day, full day or two-day sessions and include:

  • Pre-intensive preparation time individually and as a couple

  • an understanding of the psychobiology of intimacy

  • Introduction of processes for communication, conflict resolution, tender touch, and sexual expression

  • A relationship action plan and take-home intimacy toolkit

  • Follow-up booster shot sessions
