ABSTRACT

This chapter presents three in-depth cases of sexual dysfunction (vaginismus, anorgasmia, and desire discrepancies) and how these were approached during 4-D weekend intensives. As the stories unfold, they demonstrate that the 4-D group process is more than just a collection of techniques; it involves the template of the Wheel, plus all four Core Dynamics, along with the resonance of the group. A take-home message is that it may take a village to create the change each client wants. Neuro Updates #23, #24, and #25 address the nature of therapeutic transformation, releasing negative energy, and mirror neurons, with references to Daniel Siegel, Geoffry Hickok, and other neuroscientists.
