Key Research Cases and Projects

Orgasm Frequency and Relationship Satisfaction Study (2018–2019): Conducted a longitudinal study with 1,200 participants across France, finding a 32% increase in relationship satisfaction among couples engaging in structured sexual communication exercises.
"Effective communication is the strongest predictor of sexual satisfaction, beyond frequency or duration of intercourse."
Cross-Cultural Sexual Satisfaction Project (2020–2022): Surveyed 3,500 adults across 6 European countries to analyze cultural differences in sexual expectations and satisfaction. Result: Couples using weekly "pleasure-focused routines" reported a 25% higher satisfaction rate than control groups.
Digital Intimacy Intervention Program (2021): Developed an online program for remote couples therapy, showing a 40% improvement in self-reported sexual fulfillment within 8 weeks. Published results in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.
Orgasm Gap Reduction Initiative (2019–2020): Collaborative project with European NGOs focusing on female sexual empowerment and education. Achieved a measurable reduction of reported orgasm gaps in pilot groups by 18%.
