The Program:
While identity and desires shift with the changes surrounding menopause, some of these shifts are more welcome than others. As a clinician for 35 years, Dr SIX has seen many women and couples facing menopause in a multitude of ways. Some scenarios are universal, others pretty unique. Dr SIX will shed light on the difference between desire and arousal. Some women find that their interest in sex increases while others are happy to let it dwindle, yet they have to navigate being in a relationship with someone who still expects things to remain the same. You’ll hear anonymous stories of how this quandary has been addressed.
How to find authenticity and skillfully navigate eroticism (or lack thereof) in relationships will be discussed. Bring your questions. That’s part of the richness of this conversation.
Claudia Six was born and raised in Paris France and has over 30 years of experience as a Clinical Sexologist in private practice. With an MA in Counseling Psychology and a PhD in Clinical Sexology, she is board certified by the American Board of Sexology. The author of Erotic Integrity, and a speaker (two TEDx talks: Performance Anxiety in Women and another on What Happened To Sex In Our Relationships?). She is a firm believer that nobody is broken and sex and relationship challenges always have a way of making perfect sense. Her approach is direct, candid and authentic, putting clients at ease while getting into the nitty gritty of things.
