Adrian Ashman: My name is Adrian Ashman. I am a professor at University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia. I guess, the most important thing to say when you begin talking about this topic is that we are all different and one size doesn’t t fit all. What works for one couple may not necessarily work for another. So, if you are already in a relationship that s not good, then, you don t need to go any further than what I am just saying.
You need to look around for a good counselor or a good psychiatrist or a good psychologist and you need to get yourself up there and talk about the things that are happening to you with someone who has professional experience to talk about those issues. Now, the issues that I want to talk about from here on in are really some of the questions that are very commonly asked of a person who has now worked in the trade for a long time and most of my professional and my practice has been revolving around issues relating to relationships and issues relating to sexual dysfunction and sexual behavior. So that s where we are heading in this session and in this series of sessions. I have been psychologist now for probably, 32 or 33 years.
My training is essentially in Counseling Psychology and I have practiced in that particular business for probably, 15 years, up to up counseling. I am a qualified mediator. So, in a sense, I have got quite a lot of experience in talking about our topic today which is effectively, Love and relationships.
