A common question I hear is “why”. Why do I get turned on by this? Why does he want me to do that? We can explore causation and it is certainly natural to wonder however what I try to help people focus on is the “what” rather than the “why.”. The why is interesting to [...]

A frequent question I hear in my office is “Am I normal?” My response is to try a different question, i.e., am I happy?

One way for couples to spice things up is to have sex in unusual places, afterall variety is the spice of life. The kitchen table or on a blanket under the stars are all good ideas.
