How I Teach β€” SistaSexologist

How I Teach

I move between two rooms.

One person, two voices β€” and one promise that lets them share a page.

In one room SistaSexologist The confessional, desire-forward voice β€” writing from the body and the lived truth of erotic healing.
In the other Mx. Lena Queen, LCSW, M.Ed. The clinician who reads the research, names the limits, and holds the standard of care.

They are the same person. What lets them share a page is one promise: I always tell you which room we're in.

So here's the honest map. Everything I teach falls into one of three lanes β€” and I'll signal the lane every time, so you always know whether I'm handing you research, a practice, or a philosophy.

The Science

Evidence-supported

What research supports.

Evidence-supported territory β€” interventions studied through the clinical and research field of Human Sexuality (i.e. Sexology), neuroplasticity, and integrative medicine. When something lives here, there's a body of research behind it, not just my experience or my belief.

  • Sensate Focus β€”The field of modern sexology is a foundational somatic-based practice developed by Masters & Johnson. With a trauma-informed, intersectional lens, we learn decolonize our senses and reconnect to our erotic embodiment
  • Mindfulness-based somatic approaches to sexual function, sexual desire, and sexual anxiety β€” studied extensively (e.g., the work of Dr. Lori Brotto, Casse Moore, Staci Haines, & Zelaika Hepworth Clarke).
  • Trauma-informed care and psychoeducation about the nervous system, arousal, desire, and pain.
  • Knowing when to refer β€” to pelvic-floor physical therapy, sexual medicine, or mental health care.

When I'm in this lane, I'll point you toward sources so you can read for yourself.

The Practice

Experiential

What we do in the body.

Evidence-supported experiential work β€” meditation, breathwork, gentle movement, interoception (the felt sense of what's happening inside you), guided embodiment. Some of it is grounded in solid science; all of it is meant to be felt, not just understood.

Practices in this lane are invitations, not prescriptions. They aren't a substitute for medical or mental health treatment, and the right pace is always yours. You never have to override your own "no" to do this work.

The Philosophy

Meaning-making

What gives it meaning.

Where Erospirituality, Healing the Erotic Self, the Erotic Self as an inner compass, the sacred body, and erotic sovereignty live. It's the decolonial, intersectional worldview β€” rooted in the lineage of Audre Lorde and scholars like Dr. Tracie Q. Gilbert β€” that shapes how I hold all of this work.

I love this lane. It's the soul of what I do. And I'll always name it for exactly what it is: a meaning-making framework, offered to help you reconnect with pleasure, culture, and self β€” not a clinical treatment with an efficacy claim attached. Philosophy that pretends to be science stops being trustworthy, and your healing deserves my honesty more than my certainty.

Straight talk

On the strength β€” and the limits β€” of evidence

"Framework" is not the same as "proven." Some tools I use β€” like Polyvagal Theory or attachment-based models β€” are widely used and genuinely useful, but their scientific evidence is still developing or debated. When I teach them, I'll call them frameworks, not settled fact.
Absence of research isn't proof something doesn't work β€” and presence of tradition isn't proof that it does. Both can be true, and I'll hold them separately.
The science evolves. Somatic and sexuality research is young and expanding. I update what I teach as the evidence grows.

Told the difference, you get to choose what you take with you. That's not a limit on the magic β€” it's what makes it trustworthy.
