David and Jane Brown, Sex Researchers, Educators and Seminar Speakers are the founders and Principals of The School of ICASA, a sexual healing centre for training in intimacy, sexual healing and relationship skills. Jane and David were both born in England . Unfortunately, Jane passed away several years ago but David carries on their importanat work. “The principles which we have found to have worked in our lives we share with others through The School of ICASA”.
David maintains that a personal inward faith and spiritual understanding is a neglected essential in building strong and enduring relationships and in helping individuals to release their full potential in personal life issues. It was this that lead them, during the 1980's, into eight years of counselling work in the area of rehabilitation of people with drug and solvent addiction, alcoholism and other life-controlling problems. During this time David and Jane identified that sexual needs, insecurities and anxieties were more than frequently at the root of many of the social problems with which they were presented. Following this, aided by their experience as professional Trainers which spanned their career during the 1970's, they gained specific experience and training in dealing with people with sexual dysfunction through their work in the British Diagnostic Clinic in Florida, USA, from '91 to '93.
In 1991, David and Jane were asked to help in the development of an Impotence Treatment Clinic which was being opened in Orlando, Florida. During the next two and a half years in America, they researched and studied the subject of sexuality and the treatment of sexual dysfunctions, identifying a lack of appropriate treatment options available for men and women with psychogenic sexual problems and difficulties. They studied the methods of Masters and Johnson, the Sex Therapy Institute of Boston, and in particular the role of Surrogate Partner Therapy. In 1993, David and Jane returned to London and The School of ICASA opened the following year. Building upon proven methods published by Bill Masters and Virginia Johnson in the 1960's, with the training and support of IPSA, the advice of professional medical practitioners and therapists and, combined with their own belief structure and personal discoveries, David and Jane began educating men and women through sexual training modules which they have called ICASA - Inward Confidence and Sensual Awareness. ICASA modules are intimacy based behavioural modification programmes integrating an understanding of how human sexuality and spirituality can be combined to produce self-control and deeper intimacy; thereby enhancing the quality of relationships and maximising the potential of individuals to establish relationships.
David is a certified Therapist of the International Professional Surrogates Association (IPSA). The School of ICASA is a Corporate Member of the British Holistic Medical Association (BHMA) and David is currently studying for ordination as an Interfaith Minister at The Interfaith Seminary, London.
