Following my teleclass with Talli Rosenbaum on sexual pain and anxiety, I was pleased to have a comprehensive and thoughtful review written by Sad Jewish Girl on the usefulness of the class both for therapists and healers as well for individuals and couples dealing with sexual pain. Sad Jewish Girl is a 24 year-old Orthodox Jew who has been married for a year but has not consummated her marriage due to sexual pain caused by vestibulodynia.
In her review, SJG writes, “Both Tammy and Talli are sympathetic, kind women who speak very clearly and articulately about the issues…Talli and Tammy explore the experience of couples in unconsummated relationships, and offer strategies for how to help these individuals…I really enjoyed peeking into the mind of the therapist during the second hour, and seeing what kinds of behavioral interventions and strategies they might give, and what they look out for in terms of couple dynamics. There was a focus on the diversity of the patient population who appears, and what each couple wants, the interplay of the cultural and religious issues and restrictions…it’s sociologically super interesting. I thought this hour of the lecture was absolutely fascinating, but I’m not going to dish out details, because you should purchase the lecture and hear it directly from the source!”
