Sexual Therapy with Dr Kate Balestrieri

Why can’t we talk to our kids about sex?


“Sexual negativity is the lense most of us are born
into… we are fed shame”, we are made
think it should be a “secretive thing”, we allow
judgment and scrutiny of others. 


With this in mind how are we equipped to speak to the younger
generation about it - How can we be sure we are passing down a
healthy relationship towards sex? The big question being; is our
own inability to speak openly about sex pushing our children
towards porn for their sex education?


This week we speak to the amazing Dr Kate Balestrieri, a Licensed
Psychologist, Certified Sex Therapist, Certified Sex Addiction
Therapist, PACT Therapist and Founder of Modern Intimacy.


Dr Kate came into her practice through her involvement with sex
offenders. She began to see a pattern amongst these offenders and
the therapists allocated to them and felt she needed to delve
deeper.


Her out look is one of compassion, open mindedness, and honesty.
She gives many practical tips on nurturing a healthy sex life. We
talk in length about so many things including safety,
curiosity and diversity. As she puts
it; “humans are diverse so why would our sex lives be any
different”


An insightful listen. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!


Big Love,


Dave & Steve x
