Herpes Disclosure Workshops
Dating with Herpes: Confidence Through Connection
You deserve to show up as your full self—confident, grounded, and present. This webinar is for anyone navigating dating and disclosure with herpes, offering a new way to think about connection, identity, and the power of aligned relationships.
Led by Courtney Brame, founder of SPFPP, this session blends personal storytelling, grounding practices, and a framework called “Atomic Disclosure” to help you reclaim your wholeness and navigate herpes conversations without fear, shame, or over-explaining.
You’ll learn how to:
Understand the psychological impact of stigma
Reconnect with your identity beyond your diagnosis
Approach disclosure as an invitation to alignment—not rejection
Use presence and breathwork to regulate fear
Ask self-reflective questions that bring clarity and confidence
Recognize red and green flag responses in real-time
What’s Included?

Guided meditation on rejection as alignment
Tools to prepare before and reflect after a disclosure
Atomic relationship framework: alignment, orbit, attraction, identity, consent, choice
You are not your diagnosis
This webinar reminds you that your herpes status is one fragment of a much fuller, dynamic identity—and it’s one that deserves respect, choice, and clarity.

This one-hour workshop recording explores the deeper layers of herpes disclosure by focusing on the role of internalized stigma.

Key takeaways include:
Recognizing internalized stigma and how it shapes behavior and self-perception
Understanding how stigma shows up in relationships, dating, and communication
Normalizing health conversations to reduce shame and silence
Validating identity as a powerful antidote to stigma
Practical strategies for disclosing your status with presence and self-trust
