Who am I?
I’m Sarah Peart, a Dutch–English clinical sexologist, sex therapist, and sexuality educator based in Brisbane, Australia. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychosexology, alongside training diplomas in Sex Education, Psychology, and Sex Therapy.
My work focuses on helping people build healthier, more confident relationships with their sexuality and intimacy. I support individuals and communities navigating sex and relationships after chronic illness, disability, or major life changes, and I’m particularly passionate about improving conversations around sexuality in spaces where it is often overlooked.
I believe everyone deserves sex education that reflects the kind of sex we actually want to have - pleasure-focused, inclusive, and free from shame. Sex and relationships are central parts of human life, yet many of us were never given the tools to explore this part of ourselves with confidence, curiosity, or accurate information.
Through therapy, education, and public engagement, my work aims to make sexuality easier to talk about and better understood.
Alongside my clinical and educational work, I am Chair of the Early Careers Committee at the European Federation of Sexology and a committee member of the Early Career Group at the International Psycho-Oncology Society, where I work to help bridge the gap between scientific research and everyday conversations about sexuality and wellbeing.
My Values
My work is grounded in a sex-positive, feminist, trauma-informed, and queer-inclusive approach.
I believe conversations about sexuality should be open, informed, and free from shame or stigma. Sexual wellbeing includes many different experiences of intimacy, connection, pleasure, identity, and relationships, and no single narrative should define how people explore their sexuality.
I also advocate for sexual autonomy with disability, ethical conversations about pornography, and the protection of sex workers’ rights, recognising that stigma often prevents honest and meaningful discussions about sexual wellbeing.
For me, sex is not simply about penetration or orgasm. It can be about connection, pleasure, curiosity, identity, and the ways we relate to ourselves and others.
In a world that often encourages disconnection from our bodies and desires, reconnecting with sexuality can be a powerful act of self-understanding, self-acceptance, and personal agency.
