“Sam, can you get us a short professional bio, written in 3th person, for the website, telling us about your professional life up to now?”
Here goes...
“Sam is a European clinical s*xologist, psychotherapist & moral philosopher, hailing from Mol, Belgium.
After working in the Netherlands as a clinical s*xologist & couples therapist, he returned to Belgium where he worked at the General Hospital St. Elisabeth – Herentals. There he co-founded the Policlinic for S*xology (in cooperation with the departments Gynecology & Obstetrics and Urology), where he counseled people on a variety of s*xual and relational dificulties. Also ethicist by training, Sam sat on the hospital’s ethics board for several years. Currently he’s starting up a new Policlinic S*xology @ JESSA Hospital in Hasselt-Belgium. In his work with clients he focuses on normalizing s*xuality as a part of life, viewing different s*xual practices and preferences as ‘natural variations’ in turn on’s.
To further expand the care he can provide his clients, Sam specialised as Solution Focused Psychotherapist at the University College West Flanders & the Korzybski Institute Bruges-Belgium.
Fascinated by the new field of E-healthcare he actively explores what the internet can offer to bring s*xual & couple therapy to the next level. The past 4 years Sam functioned as online clinical supervisor & s*xologist for the Student S*x Work Project’s online psycosocial support service for students across the UK active in the s*x-industry.
A big believer in sharing his views about s*xuality, Sam teaches psychology, s*xology and counseling practice at the PXL University College’s BA Midwifery and BA Nursing. He’s also active as a trainer for Sensoa – the Flemish Expertise Centre for S*xual Health & HIV providing training & supervision for diverse professional settings (eg. psychiatric hospitals, general hospitals, federal police, high schools, ...) on topics such as s*x therapy, s*xually boundary crossing behavior, s*xual abuse, s*xual & relational education methods, s*xuality policies in social & health care organizations, ...
Sam sits on the boards of the Professional Society for Flemish S*xologists (VVS) and the European Federation of S*xology’s Youth Group (EFS), and is a member of the International Society for S*xuality and Cancer (ISSC) and Centre for Ethics & Value Inquiry (CEVI) based at Ghent university Belgium.”
Als het voor ‘op de website’ is moet het chique klinken ;-)
