Sex work is often misunderstood and surrounded by stigma and harmful stereotypes. These misconceptions can also affect the professionals who want to support sex workers, sometimes leading to unintentional bias, barriers to care, and making it harder for people to seek help.

Drawing on years of research, lived experience, and interviews with both sex workers and clinicians, this book offers practical guidance for providing respectful, affirming, and effective care. It explores how stigma, discrimination, and unconscious bias can influence treatment, and how professionals can create safer, more inclusive services.

Written for therapists, healthcare providers, and anyone who wants to better support sex workers, this book offers useful, evidence-informed guidance for creating welcoming, respectful, and affirming care.
