Meet a Sex Therapist

from Workplace Confessions: Behind Closed Doors · host Dawn Andrews & Elsa Barbi

The episode features a psychologist specializing in sexual health who traces their path from early childcare work to roles in hospitals and universities before shifting from child psychology to adult and college‑aged clients. Their current practice blends individual and relational work on issues like sexual disconnection, pain, communication, ethical non‑monogamy, kink, and BDSM, emphasizing that therapy is about guiding insight rather than offering answers. They describe the emotional demands of supporting clients through trauma and suicidality, relying on meditation and visualization to stay grounded, and share memorable moments, including personally transporting a client in psychosis to the ER. Throughout, they highlight how shame and lack of education make conversations about sex difficult, advocate for comprehensive sex education, and debunk myths that exposure to sexuality or LGBTQ+ identities influences a child’s identity.Send us Fan MailWant to be interviewed?
