Welcome to episode 35 of sexology podcast. Today I’m joined by Wendly Maltz LCSW, who shares with us the steps one can take to rediscover the joy of sexual intimacy after experiencing sexual assault.

Wendy Maltz LCSW, DST, is an internationally recognized sex therapist, author, and speaker, with more than thirty-five years of experience treating sex and intimacy concerns. She authored a number of highly acclaimed sexuality resources, including the recovery classic, The Sexual Healing Journey: A Guide for Survivors of Sexual Abuse, as well as Private Thoughts: Exploring the Power of Women’s Sexual Fantasies, and The Porn Trap: The Essential Guide to Overcoming Problems Caused by Pornography.

Wendy compiled and edited two best-selling poetry collections that celebrate healthy sexual intimacy, Passionate Hearts: The Poetry of Sexual Love and Intimate Kisses: The Poetry of Sexual Pleasure. Her popular educational website, http://www.HealthySex.com, provides free articles, podcast interviews, posters, couples sexual healing videos, and more to help people recover from sexual abuse, overcome sexual problems, and develop skills for love-based sexual intimacy.

An experienced public speaker, workshop trainer and keynote presenter, Wendy has lectured in many major cities in the U.S., plus in Canada and New Zealand. Her presentation style is described as “warm and friendly,” “professional,” “information rich,” and “accessible.” Having worked in the field of sexuality for over three decades, Wendy knows how to put her audiences at ease on the subject.

In this episode, you will hear:

Perfect Balance of Emotion & Science
March 18, 2021 by aundromeda from United States
First of all, I adore listening to the host, her accent is so pleasant. This podcast is focused on all things that have roots in or touch sexuality, which for me is very abstract & creative. Yet the approach & topics are rooted in facts & science, bringing listeners education and personal development in an understandable way. Happy Spring/New year!
Very educational and important information
February 27, 2021 by Dr. Shrawder from United States
Dr. Maoli’s podcast is fantastic and provides information that helps with healthy relationships. I look forward to each episode.
Thank you
February 8, 2021 by Rmg19 from United States
Dr. Moali’s podcast is incredible. It has been so liberating for me as someone who grew up in a sex negative household. I’m hoping to break this cycle for my daughters and this podcast has provided me with much of the framework to do that.
Love this podcast

I found this very informative, definitely worth the listen!
New favorite podcast!
January 28, 2021 by heatherlee497 from United States
This podcast is so informational, I’ve learned tons of things that should have been taught in a Sex Ed class but weren’t. Now, as a woman in my mid-20’s, this podcast is teaching me healthy ways to view sex and my body while also educating me about important parts of my life that nobody else talks about (like how the prescription meds I take can affect libido). I appreciate so much that Dr. Moali is taking on these topics that nobody else is talking about, and is doing it in a fun way that is so easy and enjoyable to listen to!

Incredible Content!
January 21, 2021 by sikeitssierra from United States
As someone who is extremely interested in learning about the psychology of intimate relationships and is looking to pursue couples therapy, this podcast was extremely informative. It was also personally helpful given my own experiences with SA. I think the information provided in the episodes is extremely valuable, insightful, and (most importantly) accessible.
Thanks DR.Moali for an awesome podcast!
September 9, 2020 by nurmurmur from Canada
i listen to this podcast religiously every week. The episodes are very informative, specially the most recent one on STI's. Moreover, DR.Moali explores each topic in an informative, shame free and fun way. Not only will you learn something new but also have an engaging experience listening. My only regret is not living in US for the the UberLube giveaway DR.Moali announced in a previous episode LOL .looking forward to listening to futre episodes! cheers!
SUCH important subject matter
September 7, 2020 by Aliciamaedavon from United States
I love Dr Moali's style of engaging her guests- she is friendly yet direct and addresses the kinds of things we all wonder about but often don't have the proper information about. Love it!
Superb
August 21, 2020 by Maxjoshua from United States
Wide-ranging, thorough and scientific. So much interesting stuff to learn! This podcast has expanded my horizons and improved my sex life. Keep up the great work, Dr Moali! Update Aug 2020: I’ve really been enjoying the new series on male sexuality. The episodes on non-monogamy and BDSM have been very helpful too - a great resource for anyone interesting in learning about this!
Amazing
August 20, 2020 by Yuly202 from United States
This is one of my favorite podcasts . Dr. Moali is very professional and her guests are always super knowledgeable people . I really appreciate that someone take her time to educate us regarding such important topic .
One of the Best Podcasts Out There
July 30, 2020 by Mmmyeahhhhhhh from United States
I love this podcast! Dr. Moali is great at talking about topics that are usually taboo without bombarding the audience with information. Each episodes is packed with good and helpful info without being too long. I’m majoring in Psych at the moment and this podcast has helped me realize my passion for sex therapy through introducing to the world of sexology. If I could rate 100 stars I would!
One of my favorite podcasts!!!!!♥️❤️♥️
July 8, 2020 by Missyjo? from United States
Dr. Moali is one of the best in the podcasting business to date. Not only are the episodes interesting, they are always informative. When I want to nerd out of sex her podcast is my first stop. Having 3 beautiful strong girls of my own, I always encourage them to take time to listen to this podcast as well. It empowers them with knowledge. Thank you so much for each and every episode.
Refreshing podcast
July 1, 2020 by _jazhands_ from United States
Dr. Moali provides a unique and informative perspective around mental health, sex, and relationships. As an Iranian woman, it is refreshing to hear someone from our somewhat socially conservative community to speak openly and unapologetically about these topics. I especially love when she brings other Iranian guests to the show. Thanks Dr Moali, you are a dream!
My favorite podcast!

Unlearning Religious Shame
June 21, 2020 by MDelores2020 from United States
This podcast is very beneficial for women from religious backgrounds who want to experience true freedom. I love that you made the ancient connection between sexuality and spirituality. I also think it’s worth exploring (and maybe necessary) how to help women divorce themselves from the deeply embedded concept of heaven/hell. Thank you for your work! I really enjoyed this talk!
Much needed

Smart. Fun. Meaningful.
June 13, 2020 by GinoTP from United States
I discovered the Sexology podcast in Fall 2019 and have enjoyed binge listening in my free time since then. The guests are insightful and the topics are fun. Dr. Moali engages her guests in smart conversation — I walk away feeling like I have gained value after having listened and laughed. As a university lecturer for the course Gender Communication, I appreciate the nuggets of information, the stories that broaden our narratives about the human sexual experience, and the underlying curiosity in wanting to know more about how we experience our sexuality (both individually and collectively). The quality of the episodes are fantastic — so much so that I will be incorporating this podcast as part of my curriculum to supplement our textbook and in-class lecture. Thank you Dr. Moali for sharing these positive messages with us. We are better for having heard them.
Most informative sex podcast
June 11, 2020 by Mohsenekhad from Canada
I listened several podcasts and among them in my idea this is the most recent and up to date podcast! I believe like many other things in the life, sex is dynamic too and to get to know this subject in a proper way to increase pleasure, better connection and relation we as an individual must refer to a new young professionals in this field. Dr moali with no doubt is one of the best. Dr moali thank you so much and congratulations for passing 1,000,000 downloads. Best regards mohsen
Great insight! Very informative!
June 9, 2020 by Fighter 101 from United States

New to podcasts, new listener
May 13, 2020 by Fisher.Samantha from Canada
Just wanted to say how much I love and enjoy this podcast. I am absolutely obsessed. I’ve been listening to it in the morning during my daily routine, while I’m jogging, and even in the evenings before bed. It is an easy listen and super informative for this 29 year old, married women. I am on an adventure to learn more about my sexuality, keeping my marriage healthy, and hopefully how to orgasm in the future! Thanks for the information and the great show.

Wonderful and very helpful podcast!
January 7, 2020 by LgReviews23 from United States
Dr. Moali does a fantastic job discussing perhaps “taboo” sex related subjects in a genuine and honest manner! She also does a wonderful job discussing very relevant topics with scientific evidence. I love the guests she invites to the podcast and the additional information and resources they provide followers!
My favorite podcast!
November 26, 2019 by gymnasticsgirl1096 from United States
I love this podcast so much! I recently completed my undergrad in psychology and am in the process of applying to grad schools. I’ve been listening to this show for months. Sex and sexuality have always been major interests of mine and I love the way Naz talks about the topic and brings so much emphasis on pleasure! I was raised Catholic so the shame tied to sex was always an issue for my peers and I. Discussions like the ones Naz and her wonderful guests engage in create a much more positive, accepting attitude toward something most people don’t like to talk about. Keep up the amazing work, Dr. Moali

This is such an informative podcast - Dr. Moali has interviewed leaders in the field on a wide range of issues related to sexual and emotional intimacy, and deftly combines the latest research findings, clinical expertise, with a good measure of heart and humour. I especially appreciated Dr. Moali sharing her personal experience (Changing Your Sexual Schema). This podcast has been immensely to my work, and transformative in terms of personal growth. Thank you so much for being such a phenomenal resource!

Extremely Helpful
July 9, 2019 by kleemags from United States
I found Awakening Feminine Sexuality at a time when I MOST needed to find it. In my search for similar podcasts, I hadn’t yet discovered Sexology and it was one of those jaw dropping, brick to chest type podcasts for me personally. I’d frequently heard, “women are just less sexual then men. The end.” Not this podcast. That particular episode continued the conversation with, “Well that’s kind of odd isn’t it. Lets figure out how to fix that, together.” I had never before felt hope like that in regards to my own sexuality. I’ve been enjoying exploring the other episodes as part of that conversation. Thank you for putting this podcast out there for anyone like me who craves reassurance that they aren’t broken, things can improve and needs this conversation on female sexuality to be out in the world more with less judgment and less “that’s just that” attitude. Thank you!
A Great Podcast!
May 22, 2019 by VClaire from United States
I'm always on the hunt to find good, accurate content about sexual wellness and this podcast is just that, amazing! I've learned quite a bit and recommend it to anyone in the industry wanting to get more in depth about their sexuality or for those who help others with their sexuality!
Pivotal resource!!!
May 8, 2019 by arwcbs from United States
This podcast has been game changing on the path of getting comfortable with sexuality. Covers sensitive topics with great tact in a way that makes tough subjects comfortable to process. Thank you so much for being such a great resource while I was figuring myself out!!

Going to tell everyone
April 17, 2019 by DrSmoothe from Canada
Dr.Moali, My husband and I have been suffering from a desire difference for most of our relationship and the resulting pain started creating crushing anxiety for both of us. For him it was the fear of having to say no again and make me feel rejected and for me it was the immense pain of not being desirable to him. It only got worse with stress and depression as well. I have done research on my own, things that made me feel ok with my partner having a low sex drive but it wasn’t getting better. We finally hit a point where we thought it might be over for us but I said I wouldn’t give up on him, there are solutions out there and I will find them. That’s when I looked up sex therapy on podcasts and found you, starting with your low libido podcast and moving to many others, it completely changed my out look on my relationship and sex. I no longer felt hurt and was not taking his low sex drive personally, because in this case it wasn’t personal, it was stress and exhaustion. I apologized for how sad I have been and told him that it’s time for us to start fresh, reducing the anxiety in our bedroom with Sensate Focus. I just introduced 5 minutes each of this exercise with no expectations, to say the least, just one session has completely breathed life into our relationship and given us hope. Thank you so much for this work that you do.
Great podcast
April 15, 2019 by Mehhhhhhhhhhhi from United States
I’ve listened to this podcast for couple of months, it is incredibly educational for me. Having such podcasts like this help the society to be more aware about the sex and how to deal with sex issue. Thank you Nazanin!

Intimacy at scale
March 27, 2019 by J. Barshop from United States
Dr. Moali and her wide variety of knowledgeable guests share extremely relevant info on how to get on the right track to an invigorating, intimate and mutually rewarding sex life. The great content and advice she provides, combined with the relatable way in which she delivers it had me hooked from the very first listen. Thanks for putting out such a stellar show Dr. Moali - keep up the great work!
Thoughtful Discussion
March 23, 2019 by Lyynnda from United States
I love Dr. Moali's positivity and openness. Her obvious joy in exploring human sexuality is contagious. These are fact-based discussions with common-sense tips. I wish there were more sex information out there like this!
MORE MORE MORE
March 11, 2019 by dockenbiz from United States
I started listening a couple weeks ago and have now caught up and all I can say is MORE MORE MORE- pun intended! I’m an MFT student and I love this podcast from the standpoint of a professional but also personally! I have sent episodes to my family and friends alike who are not in this field. Nazanin is amazing and now I’m dying to meet her! Keep the episodes coming!
Fantastic Advice
February 27, 2019 by Tomás 45 from United States
I love this podcast! I have to admit that prior to listening to it I felt ashamed of my own kinks and was very close minded about sex and pleasure. I grew up in a family where sex was a pretty taboo topic and talking about sex in any context other than reproduction was not ok. However, this podcast has opened my mind to world of sexual pleasure that is my body. This podcast has taught me so many things about sex and the different ways people engage in it while at the same time melting away my sexual shame. The top two things I’ve learned from this show are: don’t be ashamed of masturbating and enjoying your body, and it’s ok to enjoy a kink and like sex that is different. Thank you Dr. Nazanin Moali and keep it up! Tomás

I found this podcast by accident when searching for a specific topic earlier in the year, have listened to almost all of the episodes since then. I really like Dr. Nazanin, style, the guests that she invites onto her podcast and the questions she’s asks as well as how she recaps the episode at the end. Dr. Nazanin Moali, thank you for making the time each week to record and publish your podcast, it’s a fantastic educational resource!
Excellent resource!
November 14, 2018 by IndyListener317 from United States
This is a wonderful podcast on one of the most fascinating and important topics there is: sex. Dr. Moali is engaging to listen to and the episodes cover a wide range of topics. It's well worth your time!

Open minded and interesting discussion! Definitely eye opening!
Much-needed addition
October 21, 2018 by DevinTheBookman from United States
This podcast is a wonderful and much-needed addition to the discussion surrounding sex, sexuality, relationships, and psychology. I stumbled upon it during a search and have been hooked since. Dr Moali provides an insightful and salient (if occasionally monoamorous-heteronormative) series of presenters, and her own insights are fabulous as well! Brava!
Excellent podcast
October 5, 2018 by Ballydehob~ from United States
I love listening to Dr Moali and her guests. They cover many topics and perspectives. Dr. Moali is a skilled interviewer and her entusiasm for the topic at hand is evidence. This is one of my favorite shows and I am a loyal listener.

Many different perspectives
May 7, 2018 by Justtestingout from United States
I love the guests of different levels of professions talking about the topic of sex. I like that there’s a lot of discussion of how the sexual experience is different for everyone. Very normalizing of “issues” you might have in the bedroom. Love it.
Great Show

You put on a really great show with interesting discussions on an important topic. It's well produced and stays moving for a great listen.

Pulling Back the Sheets and Getting Real About Sex!
April 18, 2018 by The Kim Sutton from United States
Want to get under the covers and hear discussions so many hide and/or refuse to have? Dr. Moali has you covered! I especially appreciated Episode 67, discussing Erica Garza's journey with sex addiction. In a society where we normally hear about mens' sex addictions, this was a much needed discussion. And... thank you for bringing up that watching porn is not in itself a bad activity. Any activity in moderation is ok!
Great show lots to take on board

Fabulous content and spot on explanation of the "dramatic and erratic" style of being involved with a person with NPD. Thank you ladies for your expertise!
Balanced and informative
January 28, 2018 by dvsgator from United States
I work in both the mental health and medical fields. I find that this is a well rounded podcast and it carries a balanced perspective on a topic that either gets sensationalized or medicalized. Well done and recommend highly.
LOVE IT!!!!
January 25, 2018 by AQLCSW from United States
Wow...where should I even start! I started listening to Sexology's podcasts about a month ago and I cannot get enough! There is so much educational and valuable information that Dr.Moali has and brings into each show. I love how Dr.Moali is so authentic and curious which brings a ease and comfort into discussing sometimes uncomfortable topics. These podcasts have helped my marriage in a very positive way....meaning I have more insight on what I need sexually(having had trauma from sexual assaults in my life) and able to communicate to my hubby what I need and what feels good vs. not. I also have a better understanding of his needs and we have more comfort and discussing all of it! I highly recommend Dr.Moali's Sexology podcasts to EVERYONE. It's such a beautiful gift to give yourself what feels good and to understand more about our innate sexual humanness and the impact of our evolution and culture. Love Dr.Moali :) All the Best, AQ
great information!

Naz has a great podcast with a topic that many find awkward and unable to discuss, but she makes the topic very approachable with her warm and friendly yet professional style. Loved the episode on mismatched libido as this is an all too common problem for many people. Keep up the great work.
