Mcgrath Somatic Sex Therapy

It's almost the weekend! All my single babes out there, don't let the dating scene get you down. This will be a great holiday weekend with a ton of opportunities for connection. Go for what you want, have a laugh at the BS and find some pleasure just for you.

Some #SundayFunday reading. Always so happy to read about progressive sexual health education in schools. Now if only we could have this in the U.S.! It’s important that women have a mental image of what is actually happening in their body when they’re stimulated, Paris-based Fillod says. In understanding the key role of the clitoris, a woman can stop feeling shame, or [that she’s] abnormal if penile-vaginal intercourse doesn’t do the trick for her given the anatomical data, that is the case for most women."

Love this! Human connection is all around us and in this era of online dating it's amazing to be reminded that chances for love are present in every common moment.

"What’s crazy about the pain of a broken heart is that your body perceives it as physical pain. Love activates the same neurological reward centers as cocaine, and losing love can feel like going through withdrawal after quitting drugs or alcohol cold turkey."

Hey all, It's June 9th (Get it? 6/9?) and that means it's #NationalSexEdDay ! There is just about no kind of knowledge I love more or feel more strongly about than Sex Education. I want it to be free and accessible and open and honest and I want everyone to have it when and how they want it (kind just like sex, heh!) Sexual education and sexual health information not only help us feel competent and helps us make better choices but it combats shame and can save lives. It's not a luxury for some, it's a necessity for all. #sexeducation #sexedchangeslives

Are you someone who likes to get SEXTUAL? Well it's an extra fun week for you! New emojis have just been added and there are a host of the mini icons just perfect for insinuating, suggesting and outright representing your sexy interests! Sexting can be a great way to kick-start the mood when you're away from your person and thinking about them. And now you can simply let them know that you can't wait for your avocado to rendezvous with their pickle later or to tell them you can't stop thinking about all the shrimping you got last night! #mcgrathsextherapy #sexeducation #noshameinyourtextinggame

An article I consulted on for Huffington Post is up and has some great thoughts, tips and ideas for supporting female partners in less sexual times.

Loving this article and some of the real-to-life ideas it shares. Definitely worth a read.

Spoke with Men's Journal about my expert thoughts on make up sex and connection after disagreements and disconnection. Have a read:
