I am Jess Wade

I am a Sex Therapist and former medical doctor working in the field of Sexual health and well-being.  I provide a holistic approach to sexual health care.  As a former health professional I am well versed in the anatomy and physiology of sexual health, sexual function and sexual intimacy issues as a sexologist I look at the emotional and social aspects of sexual wellness.    

I graduated from Medical school (University of New South Wales) in 2015.  Since then I have completed my junior medical training years at large tertiary hospitals in Sydney.  I then relocated myself and family to beautiful Bundjalung country (Byron Bay). I completed my Masters of Medicine in Psycho-sexual therapy in 2022. I have undergone further training completing level 1 in Sensor-Motor Psychotherapy for Trauma Themes in 2023.  I am currently enrolled in Diploma of Counselling through the Australian Institute of Professional Counsellors (AIPC) due to complete early 2025.

Why I started Living a Turned on Life?

I have not always been a sexually liberated woman. Unfortunately like many women I fell
victim to the patriarchal legacy of shame and guilt surrounding sex and sexuality. Through owning and exploring my own sexual trauma stories I have learnt to turn my sexual
triggers into treasures!

I have been able to crack open my own sexual narrative and reclaim all parts of myself.  By reclaiming my birth rite to pleasure and sexual empowerment I have radically improved my relationship with myself and my loved ones.  It is on the sexual empowerment journey that I realised my deepest wounding in life is also my most potent healing gift and I feel most fulfilled when guiding women to ‘Living a Turned of Life’.
