EP 23 — SUZANNE IASENZA , PHD — SEX THERAPY
“Dr. Suzanne Iasenza is like a cool aunt you can talk to about sex without worrying she’ll tell your parents. She’s warm, funny, and non-judgmental. In this highly informative interview, Dr. Iasenza talks to us about the fluidity of sexual preferences and what we can learn about our partner and ourselves when we stop judging and start getting curious. Iasenza provides concrete strategies for helping people get comfortable talking about sex and playful ideas for increasing intimacy. If you’re seeking some inspiration to enhance your sex life or some help talking about sex with your partner, this is a must listen. It’s also a helpful episode for clinicians that are curious about sex therapy.”

FIRST COMES SEX TALK WITH THESE RENEGADES OF COUPLES THERAPY
by Amy Sohn
Is the classic postcoital question “Was it good for you, too?” outmoded?
A recent conference would indicate yes. Last month, the New York Center for Emotionally Focused Therapy held a symposium in New York called “Sex and Attachment: Coming Together.”

THE ACKERMAN PODCAST #8 / EXPANDING SEXUAL FRAMES WITH SUZANNE IASENZA PHD
Sex therapist Suzanne Iasenza, PhD joins the Ackerman Podcast to discuss her presentation, Expanding Sexual Frames in Theory and Practice in Couples Therapy.
Expanding Sexual Frames in Couples Therapy, with Suzanne Iasenza PhD
Suzanne Iasenza Ph.D., discusses her presentation, Expanding Sexual Frames in Theory & Practice in Couples Therapy, given at the Ackerman Institute for the Family. Sexuality issues are often the elephant in the room in couples psychotherapy. Some couples therapists feel unprepared to delve into sexual issues because they have not had sufficient training in human sexuality. Others feel challenged by the complexities and mysteries of common presenting problems such as the effects of trauma on sexuality or the influence of desire on couple sexuality. This workshop will provide expansive models of sexual response, how to conduct a therapeutic sexual history, and co-creating expansive therapeutic frames that include new approaches to standard sex therapy techniques. Case material will illustrate the integration of systems, psychodynamic, and cognitive behavioral thinking as well as the nuances of working with same sex and gender variant couples.
