The Body article on Sexual Healing Tools

Posted on October 3, 2019 by Wendy Maltz - Sexual Abuse Healing

Writer Hannah Harris Green explores old and new sexual healing techniques in her article, “These Women Help Others Heal From Trauma and Enjoy Sex” (The Body: The HIV/AIDS Resource, Oct. 1, 2019). The article interviews Wendy Maltz and describes several basic Relearning Touch techniques from The Sexual Healing Journey. It also features a Netherlands-based engineer’s self-discovery kit for survivors and a clothing designer’s dental dam underwear. Though the tools come from divergent therapeutic and engineering fields, they share a common goal of helping survivors learn to feel more relaxed, present, and in control during intimate relating.

Trump Causing Sex Turn-Off – Huff Post Article

Posted on December 9, 2016 by Wendy Maltz - Media Interviews, Sexual Abuse Healing, Uncategorized

In a new article entitled, “Post Election, Survivors of Assault are Struggling to Have Sex Again,” Huffington Post reporter, Catherine Pearson, explores how Trump’s shocking election win has been re-traumatizing sexual abuse survivors and causing sex and intimacy problems.  She quotes Wendy Maltz about the phenomenon and mentions The Sexual Healing Journey as a resource.  Catherine discusses how Trump’s physical characteristics and his getting away with perpetrating sexual assaults can trigger a BIG TURN-OFF to sex. Survivors may experience Trump’s having been voted into the highest office in the land by others as a betrayal by society and a dismissal of the seriousness of sex abuse. As depressing as it may be, it can be helpful to keep in mind the fact that, regardless of who’s president: We all have the right and power to define and make sex what we want it to be in our own lives and loving relationships.

Wendy Maltz will present a keynote lecture, “Let’s Talk About Sex: Sexual Nature, Harm, and Healing,” at the SASH conference on Friday October 9, 2015 at the Loews Hotel in Philadelphia. She plans to take the audience on a dynamic visual and story-telling journey to better understand what human sexuality is and how problems, such as sexual addiction, degrading pornography, and the experience of sexual abuse, interrelate and can reinforce one another. Wendy will identify key features of healthy sexual development and illuminate the power behind healthy sex principles and healing strategies. SASH stands for The Society for the Advancement of Sexual Health.  Last year Wendy received the SASH Carnes Award for her decades of work in the sexual recovery field and with the award comes this invitation to present.
