How did you first learn to be intimate or sexual with someone else? For most of us, it was a guessing game— a little guidance, lots of trial and error, and the same moves repeated year after year. For others it was what we saw and copied online. But when it comes to real sex, and passionate intimacy— something that we all crave more of, we all crave more of, what we really want, is Closeness. We y... more

  • GPS for your love life

    After listening to just one episode of Tari's incredible Closeness podcast, many things my wife has talked to me about for years suddenly came to light. Now, I'm going through one or two previous episodes a day and finding gems each time. Instead of softly asking her for things and coming across as squishy and uncertain, telling her my desires while keeping it focused on her has made a world of difference in our love life. This is meaty and actionable content, not generalizations and overviews. ... more

  • Recharge your relationship…

    After 14 years of marriage, we wanted to spice things up and learn how to get the most out of our relationship. Tari has a unique understanding of how to build chemistry and talk collaboratively about any sensitive or taboo topic. His personalized coaching is really sort of magical- and perfect for couples like us who get trapped in the day-to-day of kids, work, chores, etc. It's easy to put this off but I recommend this podcast and going to see Tari sooner rather than later, so you can get your... more

  • Pass

    So many generalization, especially about women. Unfortunately, it appears to be developed by someone with little relationship experience, but merely hookup expertise. Not insightful.

  • Even Better Than I’d Imagined

    After so many years of feeling as though there was little hope of finding that sexual spark with my best friend and husband, it felt like I’d been given a lifeline after we met with Tari and started to listen to his podcasts. Sometimes, while listening to the podcasts, it was as though he was in my mind, saying the things I’d never had the courage to say to my partner. In the in-person sessions, he was able to understand what each of us was trying to express and helped to translate. I think t... more

  • MARRIAGE SAVING!

    Tari is a relationship whisperer!! My husband and I showed up in crisis ready for divorce and left 3 sessions later with a better understanding of each other’s needs than when we married 17 years ago!

    I cannot scream praises loud enough! Want to improve your “intimacy” prowess or find healing for your relationship? Tari is your man!

  • Highly recommended

    Tari has a truly unique ability to read interpersonal situations and the nuances of people's nonverbal communication. He is a responsive, careful listener and made me and my partner feel comfortable discussing sex and our relationship. Tari was able to quickly assess what was going on and name things that I felt but couldn't put into words, much less convey to my partner. I'm grateful to have someone to turn to who I trust. He gave us great instruction and recommendations. The energy in our rela... more

  • Transformative and Empowering

    Tari provides an environment where I feel safe to explore intimacy issues. He has an intuitive and gentle way of teaching new thought patterns especially when it comes to interacting with those closest to me. I feel stronger and more confident to handle challenges as they come my way but most of all- he has helped me find the missing piece that makes me whole. It’s been such a transformative experience with him as my coach. If you’re looking for real change, I recommend Tari!

  • An approach that works

    Tari’s coaching style is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. I always leave feeling incredibly empowered (and ready to try out the homework!) Tari is compassionate, intuitive, and genuine, and really wants everyone to feel closer.

    My partner and I were struggling with intimacy and it began to spill into other areas of our marriage where we became increasingly frustrated with each other. We had been to several traditional marriage counselors who were not getting to the heart of the matter. Ta... more

  • Amazing!!

    When it comes to intimacy and discussing my sexual relationship, I am an extremely anxious, shy, and closed off person. Was definitely not something I was comfortable discussing with my husband, let alone someone I didn’t know. It is a topic that I have always felt uneducated, misunderstood, and unclear of my own wants and needs. My husband and I have been together for 12 years, married 5. Our intimate relationship has been a bit rocky for a few years now. After many attempts at individual and c... more

  • Great experience! My husband and I got so much out of our first session with Tari. He asks great questions and is very skilled at explaining things in a way that gets you to look at things from a different perspective. Very relatable, to the point, and someone we both felt very comfortable talking to. He also doesn’t have an agenda or bias, which is a quality that can be difficult to find. We both left the appointment feeling great and more in tune with each other.
