What is Clinical Sexology?

Clinical Sexology

Clinical Sexology is the scientific study of human sexuality, including human sexual interests, behaviors and functions.  

Sexologists apply tools from several academic fields including, but not limited to: biology,  medicine, psychology, epidemiology and sociology.  Topics of study include sexual development, sexual orientation, gender identity, sexual relationships, sexual activities and atypical sexual interests. The field of study explores across the entire human lifespan and includes quality of life.

Dr. Laura graduated from the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality (IASHS) with a Doctorate in Human Sexuality and a Doctorate of Philosophy specializing in Erotology (the study of how art, literature and cultural behaviors influence human sexuality). The Institute was established in  1976 and provided comprehensive and pioneering curriculum (IASHS Catalog) that paved the way for learning institutions today. The Institute closed in 2018.

Specializing in sex education through art, Dr. Laura has lectured internationally and has had a thriving clinical practice since 2007.

The Need To Talk

Sex Gender Love Therapy

Sometimes, you just need to talk.

If you are like most people, you may assume that you have no one to talk to, especially if you live far from family, are single or don’t have trusted confidants. You may not feel comfortable talking to family and friends regarding certain situations. Sex Gender Love Therapy provides a space for connecting, seeking comfort, being understood and to be heard.  

No matter what you are going through, connecting and communicating is the key to living well. Talking to someone you trust relieves stress, aids in decision-making and allows you to process your thoughts and feelings. Having a confidant to talk to provides an avenue to prevent loneliness and isolation, as well as direction.

Our shared experience, no matter how great or small, encourages us to become more aware, more mindful of ourselves and our feelings as we build a meaningful relationship together.
