Ali Mezey, Creator, Facilitator and Educator of Personal Geometry®
Foundations & Sexuality Essentials for ISSSE
Personal Geometry® is a methodology that allows you to physically see, feel, and transform personal patterns that form your relationship with yourself, others, and your sexuality. Students can choose to enroll in either the Foundations Class (seven weeks) or combine Foundations with Sexuality Essentials (twelve weeks).
In twelve weeks, students will learn to:
Use a body-based approach to get and give powerful, transformative insights within minutes
Bypass the defense strategies of the ego/mind to access the pivotal information the body knows
Understand the power of body maps and the meaning inherent in spatial relationships
Collaborate with your clients to diagram their problematic dynamics so you can see them more clearly and they can shift them more easily
Recognize how classic issues like dissociation, parentification, gender conflict, trauma, and addiction reveal themselves visually
What to expect:
FOUNDATIONS alone: 24.5 hours with Ali and 8 hours of online video content. All class recordings for review.
FOUNDATIONS & SEXUALITY ESSENTIALS: 38.5 class hours with Ali and 8 hours of online video content;Personal experiential learning - experience (and benefit from) Personal Geometry for yourself!
Facilitation practice and insights into clinical case studies – Ali’s and yours/your classmates’
Guidance on how to apply the technique to your unique practice
Upon completion of this class, students will be ready to weave this tool into their practice.

A note from Ali:
In my many years of working in various Los Angeles rehab clinics for sex, drug, and alcohol addiction, I developed Personal Geometry® to rise to the challenges of working with sexual trauma, compulsivity, dysfunctions and discontents within strict time constraints.
By working with body maps, I am able to help you go directly to the underlying issue/s. These underlying issues often elude therapists and clients – years of talk therapy may not identify or resolve them.
One of the many precious gifts my mother gave me was her open-door policy to discussing sex. I was always so curious about it, and my mom was unusually comfortable answering my precocious questions. No doubt, her unusual comfort – and her lack of judgment – discussing sex built the bedrock of my comfort and lack of judgment discussing sex. This necessarily translates to my clients and students gaining greater freedom and ease talking about, sharing and transforming their sexual challenges with me – and consequently, their partners.
I am blessed and honored to be invited by my clients into these previously secret, usually ashamed, often profoundly painful places in their lives. Letting in the light of sharing those shadows, and opening to receive non-judgemental, gentle guidance, insights, and when appropriate, fierce advocacy, can release and transform near nuclear amounts of compressed energy from clients’ psyches, bodies, and lives. All the more energy to express themselves in confidence, creativity, joy, intimacy, and pleasure!
By using the universal power of spatial relationships (externalizing the subconscious knowing embedded in the body) this work can facilitate revelation after revelation - not just to the psyche, but to the body-being where deep change can integrate and endure. With Personal Geometry®, healing happens and more satisfying and authentic sexuality inevitably expands and endures.
"Ali is a phenomenal teacher with an exquisite ability to translate complex material in an easily digestible way. Her direct facilitation style supports a “no BS” approach to learning. Experiencing Personal Geometry is a deceptively deep and effective process while at the same time including embodying qualities/elements of play. Personal Geometry is a game changer for any helping professional who wants to get to the heart of an issue in a fun and concrete way. I highly recommend it!"
— Patricia Berendsen, RMFT-S, CCFT, RSW, RP, SEP
"I’m immediately struck by not only how complimentary PERSONAL GEOMETRY is to multiple modalities and disciplines, but also how powerfully it can be used by itself to transcend the unspoken trauma cycles most of us feel trapped in. This Foundations class is also about discovering (and relying on) our own body intelligence and expanding our definition of communication. In just seven weeks I’ve received a dynamic understanding of reading body language and refining my skills as an active listener. Ali is a consummate teacher, honing her many years of experience and insight into an approachable yet deep presentation of the material. As a mentor, she leads with humor, humanity and grace, making this profound work fun and interesting. Psychologists, healers, artists…humans - take this class!"
— Lauren Gleason - TV producer, writer and newly minted Personal Geometry Facilitator
"Ali Mezey’s Personal Geometry online class is a shining example of a knowledge-rich educational experience. What truly sets this class apart is its hands-on personal approach. Practicing and interactive exercises facilitated a deeper understanding of the techniques, making the learning process engaging and enjoyable. Additionally, Ali's constant support and personalized feedback proved invaluable in gaining the skills needed and boosting my confidence as I carry onward. Completing this class has undoubtedly transformed my perspective and capabilities as a coach. I wholeheartedly recommend this class to anyone seeking to embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and add Personal Geometry into their coaching practice.”
— I. Hart Valo, Sex Coach
"Ali was great! The course was a wonderful combination of thorough information and practical application. I feel confident walking away and using what I learned to help my clients connect to their feelings and be able to have powerful breakthroughs in their lives."
