This group is designed for couples or individuals (all are welcome!) who are 18+ and who identify as a parent or caregiver—regardless of gender, relationship status, or family structure— living in Ohio or Kentucky. It’s a supportive space to explore how parenthood can reshape connection, intimacy, and desire.

It’s a great fit for those who want to:

• Rebuild intimacy and communication with a partner (or partners)
• Explore how stress, exhaustion, and identity shifts impact sexuality
• Learn tools to express needs and reconnect with pleasure
• Feel less alone in the emotional and physical changes that come with parenting

‍

Participants will join a supportive group of parents and caregivers. Sessions will include:

• Guided discussions focused on intimacy, communication, and sexuality in the parenting years
• Space to reflect and connect with others navigating similar transitions
• Gentle exercises to explore desire, identity, and evolving relationships
• Practical tools and take-home practices to support connection outside of group

Topics may include:

• How parenting, stress, and fatigue impact intimacy and desire
• Communicating needs and boundaries in shifting roles and routines
• Redefining what intimacy and pleasure can look like after children
• Understanding sexual changes after childbirth or major life transitions
  
• Challenging shame and building confidence in your sexual self

Many parents and caregivers experience shifts in intimacy, desire, and identity—but often feel alone in those changes. This group offers a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore those experiences in community. With guidance from Taylor, Laura, and Sara—therapists trained in sex and relationship therapy—participants will gain practical tools for improving communication, redefining intimacy, and reconnecting with their sexual selves, both individually and in partnership. Whether you're feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or just curious about what comes next, this group is here to support you in navigating the complexities of parenting and pleasure.
