Sex Educated

Letters from a Latter-day Saint Therapist to Her Younger Self


In a familiar and accessible format of personalized letters, Sex Educated: Letters from a Latter-day Saint Therapist to Her Younger Self, provides faith-centered and research-backed sexual education to LDS young adults, especially women. Recognizing that the world often portrays sexuality in harmful and inaccurate ways, I hope to help individuals and eventually families develop healthy and true understandings of what sex is and how to establish foundations for fulfilling sexual relationships.

A lot of people avoid talking about sex because it’s uncomfortable, and a lot of people avoid it because it’s so special. Both of these are mistakes. I hope to correct some of the unintended consequences of that silence in these pages.
