Healing doesn't happen in isolation; for Jeremiah and Julia, one major source of healing has been their sex therapy supervisor, Joe Winn. Joe describes ways that sexual repression doubles as covert sexual abuse, using his observations of the queer community’s response to the rigid gender norms and HIV during the 80s and his reminders that religious conservatism’s commitment to heteronormativity strips critical thought out of sex. He also shares how sex is about resistance, revolution, and healing.
