About This Podcast
Yes, we’re going there — join Dr. Skye Henry Smith and Martha Kauppi for candid, deep, and playful discussions of all things SEX!
Untangling Intimacy is the podcast that helps therapists and coaches have fearless conversations about sex, intimacy, and relationships of every shape and style. We believe EVERY therapist should be prepared to work with sex issues — and we want to help you get there. (Not a therapist? Eavesdrop anyway — you’ll learn a lot, and have fun doing it.)
Dr. K. Skye Henry Smith is a certified sex therapist who holds a doctoral degree in Human Sexuality. She provides coaching and consulting services to clients and therapists, specializing in relationships and sexuality concerns.
Martha Kauppi is a certified sex therapist, supervisor, and speaker. She trains therapists all over the world to work more effectively with relational intimacy challenges and sex issues, and is the author of Polyamory: A Clinical Toolkit for Therapists (and Their Clients).
