What happens to sex when aphasia takes away your words? Is sex the same as intimacy? And can intimacy survive or even grow when communication feels impossible?
In this episode, we explore the continuum of intimacy and how couples can rebuild connection after aphasia. Whether it’s emotional closeness, physical touch, or shared activities, intimacy isn’t all-or-nothing – it’s about taking small, meaningful steps forward.
We want to hear from you! Your thoughts, questions, and stories will help shape an upcoming episode with Dr. Laura Wolford. Share your input anonymously through this Google Form.
