EP413 - Sex Worker’s Rights: From Oppression to Opportunity

Welcome to Episode 413 of the Sexology Podcast! I’m thrilled to be joined by Soleil Merroir a certified sex therapist, supervisor, and sex worker, who brings a rare perspective on the intersection of therapy and sex work. Soleil opens up about her journey from a strict upbringing in a fundamentalist Christian cult to becoming a clinical social worker who integrates her professional identities as both a therapist and sex worker. This unique blend of experiences informs her work and advocacy for sex worker rights and mental health care improvements.


Angie/ Soleil (she/ they) is a licensed clinical social worker, AASECT certified sex therapist and supervisor, group facilitator, and sex worker. While their sex therapy and sex work clientele never overlap, a similar wealth of psychological, emotional and erotic knowledge integrates into every aspect of their work.


Soleil strives to combine technology and sexuality efficiently and creatively, including sex tech and VR/ XR intersections, as well as digital teaching, client and play offerings. In addition to sexuality, they are a new mom, and love art, music, dance, nature, cultural exploration and learning Spanish.


In this episode, you will hear:


· Soleil Miroir's Background and Journey

· Understanding Sex Work and Its Diversity

· Personal Experiences and Empowerment in Sex Work

· Navigating Dual Identities

· Challenges and Misconceptions in Therapy

· Systemic Oppression and Its Impact

· Equitable Care Certification

· Supporting Sex Workers and Advocacy

· Creating Equitable Care Certification
