Sex Therapy Unveiled: Insights with Dr. Lauren Fogel Mersy

As a sex positive sex therapist, that means that I am supporting and validating people who have casual hookups, people who are, you know, paying for sex work, people who are doing, you know, whatever they're choosing to do.
Ever wondered what a sex therapist really does? In this episode of 'We Heal Together', Cordelia chats with Dr. Lauren Fogel Mersy, a certified sex therapist with a wealth of experience and knowledge. Dr. Mersy shares her journey from studying psychology in Toronto to completing advanced training in human sexuality in Minnesota. She opens up about the crucial role of sexual education and the stark differences between Canada and the US in this field. But that's just the beginning.
The conversation takes a deep dive into self-care practices, including masturbation, and how these contribute to a healthy sex life. Dr. Mersy also addresses desire discrepancy, a common issue in relationships, and offers insights on how to navigate it. Telehealth’s growing role in therapy is another hot topic, as is the need for non-toxic, body-safe sex-positive spaces. Understanding female anatomy and sexual pleasure is emphasized, shedding light on often overlooked aspects of sexual health.
Trauma therapy's intersection with sex therapy is explored, highlighting how these fields can work together to foster healing and empowerment through education and awareness. Wrapping up on a lighter note, Dr. Mersy shares her love for travel and hints at exciting future plans. This episode is packed with valuable information and practical advice, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in enhancing their understanding of sex therapy.
