Stella Resnick earned her PhD from Indiana University and trained with both Fritz Perls and Laura Perls, the founders of Gestalt Therapy. Stella has focused her professional attention on the ability to embrace pleasure in life and the critical role sexuality plays in holistic health, mental and physical well-being, and happiness in intimate relationships. Stella trained in Psychodrama with co-founder Zerka Moreno. For the past 14 years, Stella has been a part of a peer study group with Dr. Allan Schore, a trailblazing theoretician in the field of neurobiology, on the brain-body-mind connection. Stella has written three books. Her latest book, Body-to-Body Intimacy: Transformation Through Love, Sex, and Neurobiology (2019), is the basis for her development of the Embodied Relational Sex Therapy (ERST) training.
