The essence of therapy with Dr. Tammy Nelson is authentic communication.
Relationship issues are many times about communication problems. Learning to communicate in new and intimate ways immediately creates connection. Once you can talk openly with your partner, relationship issues and defenses decrease. New paradigms of trust form in the relationship. Loving feelings then naturally increase.
Tammy's work can help you and your partner to increase the passion in your relationship and maintain the erotic connection you truly deserve and desire. By learning to communicate with your partner you become motivated to stay connected. A vital and healthy interest in sex and a passionate curiosity in life is the way to keep a relationship alive for a long, long time.
Through this type of work, many men and women re-charge their relationships, and bring passion and energy to their lives. Relationship issues are cured with authentic, empathetic communication. Whether you are looking for marriage counseling, want to work on relationship issues, or want an intensive to resolve conflict or improve your sex life, Tammy Nelson has a solution for you.

With Joe Kort and Tammy Nelson
What would you do with Tiger?
If you were treating Tiger Woods and his wife, would you have the tools to help?
There are many reasons someone experiences hypersexuality. The term Sexual Dependency Syndrome (SDS) allows for all the possibilities, including sexual addiction. Sexual fantasies and desires are the erotic code underlying addiction. Learn how to make a differential diagnosis, provide accurate and empathetic treatment for the patient and their partner, and examine your own countertransference which often interferes with treating sexually disordered patients.
