Description

From certified sex therapist and founder of @queersextherapy Casey Tanner comes an expansive, paradigm-shifting guide to human sexuality that dismantles limiting cultural attitudes and offers a holistic, inclusive, and healing new framework.

As an AASECT certified sex therapist and founder of @queersextherapy, Casey Tanner has received hundreds of intimacy-related questions, both from couples in their practice and from followers who are desperate for advice. At the root of all of these insecurities is a single truth: we've received a sex miseducation.

Our sex lives-Tanner argues-are a microcosm for everything we have been taught to believe and internalized about gender, sex, and relationships. The issue is, most of us were raised under false narratives about sex and relationships that led us to believe certain truths: sex is between a man and a woman; gender and sexuality are fixed; monogamy is the only framework for healthy relationships; the only kind of healthy body is a thin body; virginity and losing it are a huge deal; and so many more. In recognizing and treating our sexual miseducation seriously, we can acknowledge how limiting internalized beliefs have kept us from feeling fulfilled and secure in our gender, sexuality, and relationships.

In Sex Therapy, Tanner will provide a comprehensive guide to uncovering your own expansive approach to sexuality and relationships. Moving through the main phases of therapy, Tanner helps readers to assess and unpack the core beliefs surrounding relationships, sexuality, gender, and more; identify past trauma and pathways to healing; and redefine sex by building a definition based on knowledge and possibilities, rather than by its potential consequences. The book will also help readers to explore new frameworks for their sex lives and intimate relationships, from monogamy to polyamory to ethical non-monogamy.

Incredibly comprehensive yet deeply accessible, Sex Therapy is the antidote to our current culture of miseducation, providing a pathway forward for personal healing, stronger relationships, and deeper intimacy.
