Re:Desire is being
reimagined

After 9+ years specialising in desire and working with over 1,000 clients, I've refined Re:Desire into something sharper — no fixed curriculum, fully bespoke. Just four months of coaching that meets you exactly where you are.

I’m Leigh (she/her), your trusted sex coach and therapist.

I've helped over 1,000 people feel like having sex again — and actually enjoy it. I've been featured in USA Today, VICE & The Independent, among others.

I'm Leigh Norén — a sex therapist and coach with a Master of Science in Sexology, 13 years of coaching and therapeutic work, and 9+ of them specialising in sex and desire. In that time I've helped over 1,000 people flip the script that says no sex, or very little sex, means something is wrong with you and your relationship.

My life's work is getting you out of your head and back in your body so you can enjoy sex, confidently connect to your sexuality, and relish melted marshmallow intimacy in your relationship again.

I created Re:Desire because I saw the same pattern again and again: people who loved their partners and couldn't understand why they'd stopped wanting them. They'd tried everything the internet told them to try, and none of it had worked — because none of it was designed to figure out what was actually going on underneath.

I want this

I built this programme around the science of desire — what blocks it, what drives it, and how to build an intimate life that you actually want. 

I live in Stockholm, Sweden with my family. When I'm not coaching, I host the podcast In Bed with Science, where I talk about sex, desire, and intimacy with the same directness you'll find in our coaching conversations.

And in case you're wondering, yes, my job is exactly as awkward to explain at school pick-up as it sounds.

(Zero judgement) is this your sex life right now? 

The only climax you're after right now is the bedgasm you get when you exhaustedly climb into bed — for sleep.

Now a hug is never just a hug. And going to bed at the same time feels like an agreement you never signed. You might even feel more like flatmates than lovers at this point.

On the occasions you and your partner do get down to business, you push through with all the enthusiasm of loading the washing machine. Just another thing on your endless to-do list.

Friday's big work meeting. The milk you forgot to pick up. Whether it's time to fake it so this can be over. All things running through your mind during sex — because you're just not present. You can't be. Your body is there but your brain checked out the moment things started.

Every time your partner touches you, you secretly pray it won't lead anywhere. A hug on the sofa and your brain is already scanning: If I kiss back, will they think I want sex? If I pull away too quickly, will they be hurt? 

You love sex. Loved it, anyway. For the first few weeks or months of the relationship, it was easy. And now the idea of it makes you want to reorganise your sock drawer instead.

If you've experienced any of these feelings in the past few months — or years — I want you to know something, even if you only read this one sentence today:

You're not broken.  And there is a way through this.

And if nothing you've tried has worked so far — that's not proof you're beyond help. It's proof you haven't found the right approach yet.

If it helps: I've been in this work long enough that very little surprises me. And nothing you've just read would.

“We were decent roommates before Re:Desire but sex was non-existent. After 30 years of marriage nothing was very intimate. It hung over our heads. My biggest difficulty was feeling resentful for everything I did for my husband and our home and therefore I just was not interested in sex.

Our relationship is much closer… more genuine affection with kisses and hugs. We are making time for sex in a playful way. I am asking for what I want and personal exploration is helping me determine what that is. Not just with sex but in our relationship as well. I am happy we have a sex life again and are having fun with it! Things now feel good, honest and real… a true communicative partnership including fun. 🤩
— "Hazel", 57

"Sex was non-existent after 30 years of marriage."

"We were at a point where I was counting and making sure that we had sex so and so many times a month, and not really ever having sex for myself. I found Re:Desire when searching for something like 'I want to want to have sex.'

My partner and I now know my own sexuality a lot better, and that there is nothing wrong with it just because it is not the spontaneous, touching-based desire that is portrayed in most popular literature, movies and TV. I'm also a lot more aware of the shame I feel towards not being 'normal' when it comes to sex.

If you and your partner struggle with mismatched libidos, I highly recommend this programme. We have sorted out a lot of our sexual issues and turned it from a downward spiral to an upward one."
— Amanda, 43

What Clients Say About Working With Me

"I was counting and making sure that we had sex so and so many times a month."

"My sex life has improved dramatically since I started the program. As a man dealing with low desire, I felt like there was nowhere I could turn because it is such a difficult topic for men. Leigh's coaching was so impactful to help me understand that I was not broken, but that my sex life had become infected and needed some healing.

I would not have been able to do this by myself. If you struggle with low desire, sexual anxiety/performance issues, join now! Thank you so much for your help! My wife and I are forever indebted to you."
— Grant, 40

"As a man dealing with low desire, I felt like there was nowhere to turn."

"The insights have been really spot on and also compassionate — I've felt really seen and supported through something that's been very hard and very isolating, even when I know I share similar experiences with friends and others in my season of life."
— Penelope, 39

"I've felt really seen and supported through something very hard and very isolating."

"Helped us start talking about sex in an undramatic way after 20 years together."
— "Michael & Linda", 42-45

"Helped us start talking about sex"

"Me and my partner have always been able to talk about everything, but we still experienced a slump when we had kids. I experienced problems with my body and sexuality after childbirth.

This course helped us push past our difficulties and blocks. A few months in sex feels nearly 100% exciting, fun and intimate again. Thanks for this course :) It's helped us a lot." 
 — "Karen", 31-35

"We had a slump after kids. A few months in — sex feels exciting, fun, and intimate again."

"Before the programme I felt pressure to have sex regularly, pressure to enjoy sex, and pressure to climax regularly. The course has redefined sex and intimacy. I'm now aware of my turn-offs and turn-ons and my sex life with my husband has exploded!"
— Marissa, 44

"Before the program I felt pressure to have sex, pressure to enjoy it, and pressure to climax."

"This couples exercise has been great. It's the most physical connection and affection we've had outside of sex EVER and the most connected and relaxed any of that has felt to me in a LONG time. My husband is also enormously enjoying it and very aligned on progressing very slowly, very attuned to how I'm feeling."
— Chelsea, 39

"This is the most physical connection we've had outside of sex — ever."

"Re:Desire has been a GREAT help in every way possible and my situation with my husband has greatly improved.

We had a strained relationship before joining the program. Still loving but distanced in bed and no romance. No touches outside of sex and irritation if anything seemed like initiating sex. Now there's more enjoyment during sex, less pressure and most importantly increased general wellbeing. We have reached a level of understanding and communication we couldn't have reached without your work. I am forever grateful for the program!"
— "Jen", 32

"Strained relationship before joining the program. Still loving but distanced in bed, no romance."

"After several years of having problems and a total loss sex drive, I found Leigh and no longer felt alone. She mixes theoretical knowledge of the body and mind with goal-oriented exercises in a great way, which helped me have faith. The sessions helped me get to know my body, how it reacts, and to not feel hopeless, that my sex drive is actually there. Above all, she helped me become friends with my body again!"
— "Billie", 30

"Several years of having problems and a total loss sex drive."

"I've got a better grasp on my own and my partner's desires and sexuality now. There's way less stress and pressure around sex, and we're communicating about it so much better. Overall, I just feel happier and more at ease. This programme has also allowed my partner to understand me better and why I've been struggling with intimacy for so long. It's definitely brought us closer together."
— Angela, 27

"There's way less stress and pressure around sex, and we're communicating so much better."

"Wins right now: we kept talking even though there were some rough spots and we have communicated our desire for sex when we are in bed, which has led to very intimate and fulfilling sex! I wish I had been willing to communicate years earlier" 
— "Mindy", 53

"I wish I had been willing to communicate years earlier"

"(After 2 months) I’ve been feeling more comfortable regarding sex. Specifically, feeling less anxiety about the possibility that sex could happen. And we’ve had great sex twice this week without using meds and it was really intimate during and after. Big wins!” 
— "Ben", 42

"We’ve had great sex twice this week without using meds and it was really intimate during and after".

Since we started Re:Desire, we have become more emotionally and physically comfortable with each other than we ever have been. It’s lovely to just be cuddling and enjoying the new way of being together physically. The quality of our relationship deepens as a result of the work we have done with your help in this program. Many thanks!
— "Barbara", 65

"More emotionally and physically comfortable with each other than we ever have been"

"Sex was some chore that I wanted to avoid. I felt like a bad wife and could feel the frustration and sadness from my husband. It had gone on for so long that a divorce was near. I finally realized that I was the one that needed to change and convinced my husband that if I got some time I could change, so I wanted a “foolproof “ method.

Going to a sexual therapist felt so uncertain but this programme had a specific timeframe for when I should see a result.  

Leigh's approach helped me and my partner create more closeness in our marriage. Communication about sex has also improved, and I'm feeling more relaxed and happier overall and enjoying sex a lot more. Plus, we're doing it more often now which is great! It's been really eye-opening to learn about other ways to approach and think about sex, and I feel like I have a better understanding of myself and my partner's desires. If you're thinking about joining Re:Desire, do it!"
— "Rosanna", 32

"Sex was some chore that I wanted to avoid. I felt like a bad wife."

"Before I experienced a lot of sexual anxiety, and my constant rejection of my partner and shutting down physically and emotionally when she tried to initiate was by far the biggest issue in our marriage. Our awareness of our issues, the reasons underpinning them, the years of emotional hardwiring that contributes to both our behaviors, has improved massively. Alongside that, we have more empathy and understanding for each other now, and are both far less likely to get upset when sex or intimacy doesn’t work out how we had hoped. 

We also have action and maintenance plans to help us going forward, so a roadmap for the future. In between, we have found ways to make sex fun and enjoyable again (when it does actually happen), and there is much less tension in our marriage overall now. 
— "Ryan", 36

"My constant rejection of my partner and shutting down physically and emotionally when she tried to initiate was by far the biggest issue in our marriage"

This is the best thing I have found after 17 years of searching for answers! It's amazing to have someone to talk to and be able to pinpoint things. It's great to not feel alone or broken. I can understand my body and how it works instead of trying to force it into a box where it doesn't fit."
— "Shauna", 38

"This is the best thing I have found after 17 years of searching"

"Last week we had sex four times...which was amazing. I don't think we have done that in a long time. Also we went over your response to the last exercise, and we talked about it for a long time. It was an emotional time, and we bonded really well over that conversation."
— "Rob", 32

"Last week we had sex four times...which was amazing"

All my life I have felt anxiety and shame around sex, which led to me and my partner not having sex for several years. The course has helped me understand how desire works and how I work, which in turn has led to a reduction in shame and anxiety. Just wanted to say thanks! I've been looking for something that can help me and sexologists often have a queue of several years, but then I stumbled upon your course. Thanks!"
— "Evy", 36-40

"All my life I have felt anxiety and shame around sex, which led to me and my partner not having sex for several years. "

"Your course has been revolutionary! The last five years have been lined by private CBT therapists, dynamic psychotherapy, psychologists, a sex therapist, almost all natural remedies you can think of, and antidepressants… but your course is what's really made a difference. Now positive changes have really started happening, absolutely wonderful to be able to experience sex as intensely and beautifully as before. You've given me my life back, hugs."
— "Harry", 46

"Absolutely wonderful to be able to experience sex as intensely and beautifully as before."
