Welcome to The DiaNova Foundation

At the DiaNova Foundation,  the main purpose for our existence, the big WHY of us being here is for us to deliver on our vision that sees a world where the ability for intimate connection is possible for everyone.  Lofty?  We think not.  It is our mission and conviction to pioneer training and research on something we identify as intimacy anxiety and to equip healers to work with the millions of people finding themselves out of synch in this area of health and well-being.

This foundation is the umbrella organization that seeks to not only provide formal training through our educational arm, the DiaNova Institute, but also the Foundation itself that is more focused on setting up the safe and legal provisions needed for our trained therapists and experts to assist this client base to the fullest extent possible.

What we are interested in is becoming the mecca for health and related professionals who wish to bring persons who are impeded by high anxiety, trauma or related causes back into alignment and integrated health. As we have noted also in the introduction to our Institute, the key DiaNova differentiator is combining spiritual guidance together with experiential work that integrates breathing, touching, sensing and moving as necessary components of complete and thorough integration of physical mental and spiritual vitality.  All this is possible and is the ultimate dream of San Francisco-based academic and practitioner Dr. Elaine Floyer.    Her landmark work on Intimacy Anxiety Disorder has spawned both this Foundation and the Institute and that dream is to see to it that the estimated 10 million people in the world impacted in some way around intimacy anxiety can be met, seen and returned to full health and intimacy integration.

We invite you to look around this site and our accompanying Institute site and see what aspect of our journey speaks to you.
