Intimacy Hour

Join our Monthly Intimacy Hour!

Sexuality Information, Discussion, and Support

What is a "healthy sex drive"? Am I normal? Why does my partner want sex more/less than me? What do I desire? Why do I struggle to find what I desire?

If any of these questions feel familiar, Intimacy Hour may be just the resource you're looking for.

Join two Experienced Sex Therapists and Licensed Clinical Social Workers for 75 minutes of accurate, relevant information, sex & relationship advice, and Q&A.
