Sexual Fantasies As A Portal To Self-acceptance And Inner Freedom : Lucia Cordeiro Drever : Tedxcu

Sex is hard to talk about and seen as an inappropriate topic of conversation in many settings. But eroticism is a core ingredient of being human. Repression creates shame and suffering. Lucia shares her findings as a couples therapist and sex researcher in how acknowledging the sexual fantasies can be a doorway into self-acceptance, understanding ourselves deeper and experiencing more inner freedom.

Lucia Cordeiro Drever is a psychotherapist working primarily with couples and psychedelic-assisted therapy in Longmont, CO. She is also pursuing a PhD in Clinical Sexology. Lucia's work with couples mainly involves helping partners understand one another and take responsibility in order to find a safe and fulfilling partnership. Her work with psychedelics helps people access deep parts of themselves that were previously unavailable. She is originally from Brazil and loves spending time with her husband, children, family and friends in tropical places eating delicious fruit. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
