Second Life: Reopening My Sex Therapy Office and What to Expect in Sex Therapy
October 7, 2024
A few months ago, I shut down my sex therapy office in Street Whores. The place had gone to hell—not because of anything on my end, but the sim itself had fallen apart. It was neglected, empty, a fucking mess. So, I packed my shit and left. I spent some time as a traveling therapist, wandering through Second Life, bringing my services wherever they were needed. But the spark was gone.
Then came the news: Street Whores had new owners, and things were looking up. The sim was buzzing again, full of energy, and it felt alive. So, I decided it was time to return. This time, though, it wasn’t just about setting up shop. I was determined to make this work—something bigger than it had been before. Sex and therapy were back on the agenda, front and center.
Sex and Therapy: From Whorevard to Second Life
Books on psychosexual therapy are everywhere these days, but it wasn’t always like this. Back when I was studying at Whorevard University to become a licensed sex therapist, authors like Emily Nagoski (author of Come As You Are) and Jessa Zimmerman (author of Sex Without Stress) were just starting to appear on my bookshelf. These are the voices that shaped a lot of the conversation around sex and therapy. But the field itself has a long and fascinating history.
Sex therapy as a formal discipline was pioneered by Dr. William Masters and Virginia Johnson in the 1960s. Their research on human sexual response and their development of therapeutic techniques transformed the way people understood and treated sexual dysfunctions. Before their work, issues around sex were often viewed as moral or religious failings rather than medical or psychological challenges. Over time, their groundbreaking studies made space for others to expand the field, incorporating psychological, relational, and even cultural aspects of sexual health. From Masters and Johnson, the field grew to include sex-positive and LGBTQ+ perspectives, helping shape modern sex therapy into a more inclusive practice.
A lot of those early books tried to break down the mystery of sexual pleasure. It’s not magic—it’s science, biology, and psychology all wrapped up together. But it’s also personal as hell. Sexuality is influenced by a ton of factors, and understanding them is key if we’re going to talk seriously about sex and therapy.
Here’s the deal:
- Age plays a massive role in how we see ourselves sexually. Your sexual self-concept evolves as you grow, and that’s something sex therapy addresses.
- Gender identity is shaped even before puberty. How you see yourself can have a long-lasting impact on your sexual experiences and desires.
- Family dynamics affect how we build emotional and romantic connections, whether we like it or not.
- Cultural and religious beliefs mess with how we express and connect sexually. Some cultures have stricter views, which can lead to a lot of repressed sexual energy.
- Societal norms, especially heteronormativity, push people to conform to certain ideas about what sex should look like. And that can fuck people up if they don’t fit that mold.
- Low self-esteem screws with how we experience sex. A bad self-image often leads to rough, unfulfilling sexual encounters.
- Sex positivity is all about enjoying sex for what it is—pure pleasure. No shame, no judgment.
- Orgasm is a different experience for everyone. Some people hit it hard and fast, while for others, it’s more gradual. The point is, there’s no “right” way to come.
The thing is, even with all these resources on sex and therapy, Second Life hasn’t caught up yet. You’d think, with all the avatars and virtual sexual exploration going on, there’d be more discussion about it. But no—nobody was talking about sex and therapy in Second Life. That’s when I realized it was time for me to step up and make a change. I needed to put my experience into words and share it.
It was time for me to write a book.
Why I Wrote What To Expect in Sex Therapy
What To Expect in Sex Therapy isn’t just another self-help guide. I, Dr. Kara Song, wrote this to push readers beyond their comfort zones. Not in some dramatic, over-the-top way, but by encouraging you to explore the sides of yourself that you’ve been too shy—or flat-out afraid—to look at. Let’s be real: society doesn’t exactly set you up to feel confident about your sexual desires. There’s a lot of shame, guilt, and bullshit around sex that most people have carried with them for years. This book is about breaking those chains.
I’m not here to throw fluffy, feel-good advice at you. This isn’t about cosmic alignment or finding your inner sex god—though, hey, if that’s your thing, go for it. What To Expect in Sex Therapy is more than a guide. It’s a personal invitation from me to stop overthinking and start owning what you want. Through the pages of this book, I’m essentially telling you to cut the bullshit and start living a sexual life that feels natural—and yes, even exciting.
A Deeper Connection With Yourself and Your Desires
Why did I write this? Simple. Too many people are unfulfilled in their intimate lives, held back by barriers they don’t even realize are there. I’ve seen it over and over in my sex therapy sessions. People come to me thinking there’s something wrong with them or they’re just stuck being unhappy. But that’s not the truth. What they’re missing is the space to explore what’s possible. Sex therapy—and this book—gives you that space.
I’ve worked with so many individuals one-on-one, but I knew that wasn’t enough. I wanted to reach more people and help them break free from the shit that holds them back. That’s where this book comes in. I want to extend my impact beyond just a single session, beyond a one-hour slot. I want people to know that they don’t have to settle. Your desires aren’t dirty or wrong—they’re part of who you are, and it’s about time you start connecting with them.
Breaking Free of Shame and Living Authentically
What To Expect in Sex Therapy offers you a way out of the rut. There’s no pressure, no judgment, just a raw and honest approach to uncovering what’s been buried for too long. The chains that have been holding you back? They’re invisible, but they’re heavy. I know because I’ve seen it, time and time again. People walking around weighed down by societal expectations, old traumas, and ideas about what sex “should” be.
Through this book, I want you to stop settling and start thriving. The moment you decide to pick this up, you’re already taking the first step toward a more authentic, fulfilled sexual life. And if you’ve been wondering whether that’s even possible for you—well, I’m here to tell you it absolutely is.
My Office is Open Again: Time to Take the Next Step
And there you have it—my sex therapy office in Second Life is officially back open for business, and my new book, What to Expect in Sex Therapy, is ready for you. It’s been a long time coming, but I’m thrilled to bring both the office and the book back to life. If you want to get your hands on the book, you can pick up a copy for just L$50. It’s available at a small book stall I’ve set up right outside my office in the Street Whores region. Grab it and start reading, but more importantly, start embracing the sex and therapy conversation.
But let’s be real—what you really want isn’t just the book, is it? You want the full experience. You want to book a session with me, to finally understand what true, mind-blowing, fulfilling sex can feel like. Trust me, I know what I’m doing, and I promise you won’t leave disappointed. There’s a reason I’ve been doing this for so long—because it works, and I’m damn good at it.
