Our Intimate Connection: A Sex and Intimacy Workshop for Couples

About The Event

Co-Create the Intimacy You’ve Been Wanting

Great relationships don’t just happen, they are intentionally built. Whether you’re feeling disconnected, stuck in a rut, or simply want to strengthen what you already have, Our Intimate Connection is designed to help you and your partner create a relationship where both emotional and physical intimacy thrive.

During this one-day workshop, you’ll explore factors that shape your intimacy. Through approachable teaching, personal reflection, and private, guided conversations with your partner, you’ll begin creating an intimate relationship that reflects your values.

We’ll explore topics like:

  • Why emotional safety is the foundation of great intimacy
  • How attachment styles shape the way we pursue or avoid connection
  • The role your nervous system plays in desire, closeness, and vulnerability
  • Common myths about sex that create unnecessary pressure
  • How to navigate differences in desire without blame or rejection
  • Simple ways to build intimacy that lasts beyond the honeymoon phase

We’ll draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), attachment science, and current sex therapy research to help you better understand yourself as well as your partner. The day will focus on becoming curious about pleasure, desire, and connection by giving you a structure for having conversations that couples often want to have but don’t know how to begin.

You’ll leave with a better understanding of your shared intimate relationship and create a vision for how you want your sexual relationship to develop into the future. 

Post-Workshop Group

After the workshop, couples have the opportunity to continue building on what they’ve learned through a closed, therapist-led follow-up group. These three 90-minute sessions provide additional support, coaching, and guided conversations to help you integrate what you’ve learned into everyday life.

You can register for the workshop alone or choose the workshop plus follow-up group package.

Is This Workshop Right for Us?

This workshop is designed for couples who want to strengthen their relationship, deepen emotional connection, and cultivate a more fulfilling intimate life. Whether you’ve been together for one year or thirty, you’ll find meaningful conversations that meet you where you are.

We welcome all committed relationships, including LGBTQ+, consensually non-monogamous (CNM), and diverse relationship structures.

To help create a safe and supportive learning environment, all couples will participate in a brief screening conversation before registration is finalized. In some situations, we may recommend a different level of support if we believe another format would better meet your needs.
