It’s a heavy time for so many of us. With Roe v. Wade being overturned by the Supreme Court, many uterus owners will no longer be able to access reproductive healthcare. This is a serious issue that is already and will continue to impact so many people’s emotional, physical, social, psychological, and financial well-being.

As a sex therapist, I’m also considering how this injustice may impact people’s sexuality. Sex and reproductive health are interconnected. The access that someone has to reproductive healthcare and the autonomy they have over their body directly impacts how comfortable and empowered they may be in their sexual expression.
