Sex can be satisfying–even if it’s not a 10/10 every time!
Introducing The Pleasure Circle:
Because sex shouldn’t feel like a mystery, a hassle or a messy, complicated thing you avoid!
A 6 week program for women or couples who want to unlock their sexual desire
Many of the clients in my therapy practice feel:
- Confused by wanting sex sometimes and feeling totally turned off other times
- Like they are are missing out on what others have in the way of a sex life
- Afraid to say what they want sexually
- Feel both hesitation and excitement at the idea of a vibrant sex life
Culturally, we are taught to believe we should have spontaneous desire (in the mind) and subsequent arousal (in the body) easily accessible throughout the life span. The truth is that desire is complicated and connected to many factors beyond your automatic bodily response. Truthfully, your “biggest” or most powerful sex organ is actually your brain!
Through this program, you will be able to identify and cultivate your own erotic template–your unique mapping of desire and arousal. And through the experiential learning and small group discussions, you will
- Feel more comfortable and connected in your body
- Know what turns you on (and off)
- Clear obstacles that have kept you from fully exploring your sexual self
- Identify self-imposed limitations in partnered or solo sex
Some past Pleasure Circle participants shared the following:
- “I’m re-energized and lighter.”
- “I realize I’ve been too goal oriented (toward orgasm). It’s not a task!”
- “Hearing women talk honestly and authentically like this is monumental.”
- “I’m feeling a whole new level of willingness, which is new for me.”
Dr. Jenn Kennedy, PhD
I’ve worked therapeutically with hundreds of women and couples to unlock better sex lives. As a sexologist, I’ve also studied women and sexuality, so I integrate the full picture of interpersonal, psychological and environmental factors that impact your sex life. I offer evidenced-based theory and practical interventions with an understanding that every sexual journey is unique.
Weekly Breakdown of Pleasure Circle:
This is a 6 week program via Zoom. All Zoom calls will be live and include other participants. Program will include a mix of presentations by Dr. Jenn Kennedy and live, guided experiences.

This program is for you if:
- You are curious about your sex life and want to better understand how to tap into desire
- You want to explore new ways to enjoy sexual pleasure
- You have sexual questions and don’t know who or how to ask
- You want to understand your own sexual profile and how to communicate that to a partner
This is not a good program for you if:
- You want to work out past traumas (that’s better work for individual therapy)
- You want to change your partner (that’s better work for couples therapy)
- You aren’t comfortable hearing from or sharing with others
FAQs
What if I have to miss a call?
If you have to miss a call, we will record it and you can watch it on your own for up to two weeks after the end of the program.
How much time should I allow for this program?
Allow 2-3 hours weekly in your schedule. 75 minutes for the live zoom and 30 minutes to an hour to journal and/or try out things we discuss in between calls.
What if I’m inexperienced with sex?
You are in the right place! We will address some basics of anatomy and you will have the opportunity to ask questions and learn from Dr. Jenn and other participants.
Is this program for couples or men?
No. For now, this program is only for adult-aged folks who identify as female.
What if I’m bi-sexual or lesbian?
Great, you are welcome and we understand the nuances of your sexual experience and will address it as well. We ask that partners take the course separately to promote more open sharing.

The fee is non-refundable but available toward a future offering in the next 6 months.
