＂Dr. Emily Jamea makes difficult issues simple and accessible via her central tenet that expressing our authentic sexual selves is not about venturing into the unknown but rather searching within ourselves and tapping into our innate, albeit uncultivated, sexual potential. Dr. Emily guides us on this journey with care and curiosity＂ - Ian Kerner, PhD LMFT, NY Times best-selling author of She Comes First

The experience of effortlessness, total absorption, and loss of space and time are feelings that everyone wants to enjoy while making love. However, regardless of everyone’s desire for better sex, passion and sexual satisfaction tend to diminish in longer-term relationships. This is a problem because studies consistently show that sexual satisfaction is key to relationship satisfaction.

Great sex is something we all deserve.

Anatomy of Desire identifies five secrets―sensuality, curiosity, adaptability, vulnerability, and attunement―that help her clients transform sex from sub-par to extraordinary.
