  • An Exceptional Marriage

    What is an Exceptional Marriage? As two people join together, their shared life can become truly exceptional when there is also a marriage of security and adventure, individuality and intimacy, harmony and conflict, the cozy and the erotic, the powerful and the most vulnerable.

  • Education & Training

    Exceptional Marriage Mentoring (EMM) grew out of an imperative to find a new way of working with couples that did more than “save marriages.” We took on the task of integrating the body-based work we had been trained in, as well as our own 35 year connection along the way.

Couples in Community ::

Couples in Community

The idea for couples in community evolved from our recognition that the committed relationship is one of life’s most difficult undertakings. As couples we need other couples to support, encourage and challenge us to be real with each other. Paradoxically, being in a committed relationship can, at times, feel incredibly isolating. Because, as a couple, partners are so close to each other, it is easy to get lost in the trees and miss the forest.

Sexuality ::

Sexuality

In our mentoring work with couples we place a high priority on the role sexuality plays in their lives together. If you are experiencing problems in your sex life, or simply wish for deeper passion, our mentoring sessions can be of enormous value. Sexuality is an integral aspect of the committed relationship and we work with a wide range of issues including inhibited sex drive, trauma, infidelity, and compulsions.
