Description

In recent years, the provocative work of couples therapist Esther Perel has resonated in the popular culture by exploring the dynamics of eroticism in long-term relationships and what the all-too-common experience of infidelity can teach us about the paradoxes of the search for intimate connection in today’s world. In her new book, The State of Affairs, and her popular podcast, Where Should We Begin? Perel has opened up a wider cultural conversation about our notions of traditional couplehood and the role therapists might play in helping couples explore beyond our one-size-fits-all notions of intimacy and commitment.

Perel will look at the ways our relational lives are undergoing a radical makeover. She’ll discuss the rise of algorithm as matchmaker, the commodification of human beings in the swiping culture, and the pressure to curate enviable lives on social media. In this keynote, you’ll explore:

  • How today’s social changes are entering the consulting room and transforming our approach to couples therapy

Private Practice


Esther Perel is a Belgian psychotherapist of Polish-Jewish descent who has explored the tension between the need for security (love, belonging, and closeness) and the need for freedom (erotic desire, adventure, and distance) in human relationships.

Perel promoted the concept of “erotic intelligence” in her book Mating in Captivity: Unlocking Erotic Intelligence, which has been translated into 24 languages. After publishing the book, she became an international advisor on sex and relationships. She gave a TED talk in February 2013 called “The secret to desire in a long-term relationship,” and another in March 2015 called “Rethinking infidelity… a talk for anyone who has ever loved.”

Perel is the host of the podcast “Where Should We Begin?”, which is based inside her therapist’s office as she sees anonymous couples in search of insight into topics such as infidelity, sexlessness and grief.
