About Tina Schermer-Sellers
Tina Schermer Sellers, Ph.D. is a nationally known speaker and author on sexual shame. She is associate professor of sexuality and director of medical family therapy at Seattle Pacific University. Tina serves on the board of The American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists, and is a Co-Creator of She Is Called – a Leadership Collective for Women. As a preeminent voice on the impact of abstinence education and purity culture, Dr. Sellers is frequently featured on podcasts, TV, documentaries, articles and radio, including Spirituality & Health magazine, and NPR’s All Things Considered. In her acclaimed 2017 book, Sex, God and the Conservative Church – Erasing Shame from Sexual Intimacy, Dr. Sellers reveals how the western conservative church in collusion with consumer driven culture and politics, has infiltrated our core ability to attach to our partners, and instruct our children to attach to theirs. In the book, Dr. Tina reveals the Hebrew understanding of the gift of sexuality that she believes all people were meant to understand. She travels the country teaching parents and adults this ancient wisdom and how to apply it to our everyday lives and relationships. A vibrant shame-free sexuality is a gift we all can know!
