About
Differences in sexual desire are one of the most common challenges couples experience, yet they are often misunderstood. Many people assume that mismatched libido means something is wrong with them, their partner, or their relationship. In this pre-recorded mastercalss, clinical sexologist Anisa Varasteh offers a compassionate and evidence-informed framework for understanding why desire changes over time and how couples can navigate these differences with curiosity rather than blame. Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, and relational insight, this course explores how stress, emotional dynamics, nervous system regulation, and relational context all shape sexual desire.
