Information on leading a free, responsible and inclusive sex life

“Fully owning your sexuality means giving yourself permission to feel, explore and enjoy, while always respecting your own desires and those of your partner.”

Louise Paitel is a clinical psychologist with a background in cognitive behavioural therapy. She's also a licensed sex therapist and a university researcher. She’s passionate about making sex talk smarter, kinder and more open, taking an ethical and scientic approach that's based on real-world experience. Whether she’s in a therapy session or digging into the latest research, Louise explores how relationships work and how tech is reshaping our intimate lives. For her, sexuality is all about freedom, meaning the freedom to be yourself, to experiment, to explore, but always safely, and always with respect.
