When intimacy becomes stressful, most couples do one of two things:

They avoid it, hoping it will get better on its own… or they push harder, hoping effort will fix what feels off.

But intimacy rarely improves through avoidance or pressure.

It improves through clarity, safety, and skill.

If you and your partner feel stuck in sexual misalignment, you’re not alone and you’re not broken.

This webinar is a place for women to learn what’s actually going on beneath those patterns, and what helps couples move forward together.

Here is what you’ll learn in this free live webinar

In one grounded, supportive hour, you’ll learn:

  • Why desire changes over time (and why that’s normal)
  • Why sexual misalignment becomes so painful even in loving relationships
  • How guilt and obligation quietly erode intimacy
  • How stress, anxiety, and overthinking shut desire down
  • How to start rebuilding a healthier sexual dynamic together
  • What “consent” actually looks like in a long-term relationship (beyond yes/no)

Who this is for

This webinar is for women who:

  • Care deeply about each other, but feel stuck around intimacy
  • Experience mismatched desire or different initiation styles
  • Feel tension, guilt, or anxiety around sex
  • Want more closeness, but don’t know how to talk about it without conflict or shutdown
  • Want a healthier path forward that includes both truth and tenderness

Hanna Yerushalmi, LCPC, CST

Hanna is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and a Certified Sex Therapist (Modern Sex Therapy Institutes). She creates a warm, safe space where couples can bring the “elephant in the room” into the open—without shame, blame, or pressure.

Hanna often describes intimacy as having two languages:

  • Emotional intimacy (how we speak and listen in a way that builds connection)
  • Physical intimacy (how we give and receive touch in ways that strengthen bond)

These two forms of intimacy are inseparable. When one breaks down, the other usually follows. Hanna helps couples rebuild with honesty, structure, and steady guidance.
