Julianne Bentley

Julianne Bentley, the original Wanton Hussy, is unashamed to admit that she’s spent years thinking about sex. She works with individuals (and occasionally couples) who want to bring the passion and joy back into their bedrooms.

Drawing on over fifteen years of experience discussing the ins and outs of sexuality, in all its forms, Julianne brings compassion and energy to the process of supporting you in making the changes you need in order to have the sex life you want and deserve.

Recognizing that sometimes the most valuable knowledge comes from experience, Julianne maintains a positive outlook, and knows that everyone can overcome their current challenges and embrace their true natures as Wanton Hussies. She can support you with whatever issues are holding you back, because she’s dealt with and overcome most relationship issues herself.

Through a process of mentoring, Julianne listens, reflects, encourages, and supports clients (women and men, married and single), in coming to terms with their sexual selves. She believes firmly that every woman can be a Wanton Hussy and every man a Libidinous Libertine.

Julianne is an advocate for an individual’s ability to take control of their own life and to improve it. She sees the integration of the different aspects of our lives as key to the process of becoming our fully-authentic selves. With a completed Master's degree in Library and Information Science in one hand and a pen in the other, she left her secure job of over six years to pursue her dreams of being a writer and sexuality coach full-time.

Julianne has been writing about sex since 2000, in webzines, forums, and even a few printed books. She has been writing for over twenty years, creating poetry, short stories, essays, erotica, and the occasional novel. She lives in the Santa Cruz Mountains with her partner of 14 years and their golden retriever.
