Embodied Relational Sex Therapy Training (ERST) 

I’ve designed a virtual format for the transformational ERST training. The current Zoom-based program is a 2-day (Friday and Saturday) weekend for 6 hours each day for a total of 12 hours and 12 CE credits for professionals. This ERST Virtual training focuses on emotional, relational, and sexual health and on recent neurobiological research that advances our knowledge of the effectiveness of Right Brain Psychotherapy. Contact me for information about upcoming ERST trainings.

Upcoming Workshop

THE PLEASURE BOND

A Couples Workshop on Replenishing Love, Romance, and Playful Spirits, with Stella Resnick & Alan Kishbaugh

Esalen Institute 5-day Workshop

Sunday, May 28 to Friday, June 2, 2023

Pleasure is finally being acknowledged as the missing link in the work of many psychotherapists. There is now a growing recognition among leading psychologists and psychiatrists that there has been too much emphasis in the field on learning how to “down-regulate “or manage pain rather than on exploring resources on how to “up-regulate” or enhance pleasure. 

 

This new couples’ workshop, co-led by long-time couple Stella Resnick and Alan Kishbaugh continues our Esalen tradition of leading couples’ workshops focused on enhancing emotional and sexual pleasures in an intimate relationship. May and June at Esalen Institute in beautiful Big Sur, California, is a perfect time to be there. The weather is usually warm and sunny, the garden is in full bloom, and the otters are at play in the ocean in full view of the hot springs’ baths.

 

So have the treat of a lifetime and come join us for what many participants have described as a life-changing experience.

Sunday, May 28 to Friday, June 2, 2023

True love is not just about being true to another. The most fulfilling love is when you are also true to yourself. You want to be loved for who you truly are and not for who you can pretend to be.

 

Being romantic is a great way for partners to play. When one person is attentive to the other with a lighthearted and lively spirit and the other reciprocates in some way—laughs at the joke or smiles back and stays engaged—they've connected with their inner playmates.
