Dear Reader, I'm running an experiment this year which is basically a course in expanding relational intelligence - for free. I publish a new video on my YouTube channel every month, and then invite you to talk about it (or anything you like regarding Type and relationships) during free office hours.

Cheers, PS: Interested in something more tailored to you and your relationship, but not ready for coaching? I'd still love to support you! Here are some resources you might find helpful (links): |

It categorizes first, using predictions rooted in somatic processes, and then uses...
Dear Reader, if you think asking for help with your sexual and intimacy issues is hard, you're absolutely right. The average couple waits 7 years to seek any support, and even then it can take months to build up enough trust with your practitioner to start talking about the real stuff. So much of it feels embarrassing, it's extremely vulnerable, and the smallest whiff of misunderstanding can shut things down. You're incredibly brave for considering it, and I mean that sincerely. Here's an...
