Body and relationship-oriented three-part workshop series for professional work with sexuality, love and relationship with Mag. Dr. Ingeborg Netzer, MSc and Martin Geiger, MSc (download flyer as pdf 620 kb vers. 1.12.20) - Sensuality and sexuality in their various forms are essential areas of human existence. Sexual health is based on pleasure and play and the ability to develop further. Unfortunately, the subject of sexuality is all too often pushed into the (tabooed) background in psychotherapies.

In this workshop series, therapeutic work with sexual issues in single and couple settings is taught and practiced through self-awareness, theoretical reflection and the exploration of methodological approaches.

The basis for this is, among other things, the Gestalt therapeutic approach "Emotional Relational Sextherapy" (ERST) by the renowned American pioneer Stella Resnick, which does justice to the latest sexual therapeutic, bonding theory and neurobiological findings.

Workshop 1: Early Roots of Closeness, Love and Desire: How we have learned to love (20EH)

Attachment patterns and sensual experiences in childhood and adolescence as the basis of adult sexuality and relationship shaping competence; therapeutic work with Resnick's method of the "Family Closeness Profile".

Workshop 2: Sexuality as a body topic: work with breathing and physical awareness (20EH)

Resource-oriented body process work for therapeutic work with sexual difficulties especially due to shame and trauma; breathing techniques for stress regulation; ways to greater authenticity and pleasure in Sexuality.

Workshop 3: Sexuality as a relationship topic: Work in couple and single settings (20EH)

"Pleasure heals": Sexual difficulties in the context of couple dynamics; Embodied Relational Sextherapy (ERST): Stella Resnick's model for therapeutic work with couples; ethical and life course issues.
