We provide an amazing community to learn and grow, amazing instructors who teach about the whole person, staff to help you through the journey, access to incredible supervisors, and networking support for your business.

This is how we make your life better at ISEE:

  • We provide a collaborative and creative space for the growth, liberation and development of individuals and the sexuality fields.

  • We believe in the power of community for transformation of the individual and the world.

At ISEE, we accomplish this through:
