Can Love Last?Larry Hedges Tux Photo

Why We Love,

Why Romance Fades,

What We Can Do About It!

Instructor:  Lawrence E. Hedges, Ph.D., ABPP

            We have long known that physical and emotional intimacy diminish or actually die out during the course of long-term relationships.  There have been many speculations as to why this is so, and couples’ therapists have generally, without any real basis, promised that intimacy can be restored.

Something in us continues to believe that love can last.  But cross-cultural and historical research makes clear that we have always been a species generally given over to serial monogamy.  Dr. Hedges will present recent theory and research findings that point us in new directions for how we can establish more rewarding intimate relationships and how we can work together to make love last.  The course material extends to all intimate relationships—including the psychotherapy relationship.
