The Women on My Couch: Stories of Sex, Love and Psychotherapy, Paperback/Dr Brandy Engler

Descriere

The Women on My Couch is a collection of short stories about the sexual choices women face. Dr. Brandy Engler, psychologist and sex therapist, allows readers access into the therapy room to witness how women are handling dilemmas such as: a husband's proposal for a threesome, post- wedding disappointment, a new lover's unusual kink, the temptation to cheat, love vs. singlehood, using sex work to pay for college loans and the ubiquitous loss of sexual desire. Questions are explored in the context of modern day Los Angeles and includes the lens of history, spirituality and world cultures. The Women on My Couch gives women a voice, and helps them find their voice, in a rapidly changing culture, where freedom is both liberating and confusing, exhilarating and at times disappointing. Women will see their lives mirrored back to them with honesty, warmth and humor. About the Author: Dr. Brandy Engler is a licensed psychologist specializing in sex and relationships.
