This story deals with similar themes as the stories by wannabeboytoy, seducedHylas, and Dark Betrayal, namely cheating, betrayal, and heartbreak. If stuff like that isn't your cup of tea, then you probably shouldn't bother reading it. I do not condone any of these actions in real life. This is just a story. Enjoy.)
(Also, this is a continuation of a story that begun in my story "Hurricane Gina". While it's not necessary to read that one before this one, it would provide some added context, I'm sure.)

(Dr. White)
My name is Dr. Jennifer White, and I am a fully licensed sex therapist.
I got my Bachelor's degree at the University of Chicago, where I double majored in psychology and sociology. I went to med school at the University of Michigan, and at all these levels, I graduated with honors. I did my residency at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, I had been published multiple times in APA journals for various studies and research I had taken part of. And now, at the age of 30, I was one of the most accomplished young therapists in the country, running my own practice where I had received multiple commendations. I was well known by my peers as one of the rising stars in my field, and the multiple degrees and awards on my wall supported this. I had accomplished a lot in this field already.
And I also just had sex with a patient's husband for the first time, and it was life-changing.
But anyways, I had been working professionally for a few years, and I now worked at a small but thriving practice. My office had received multiple accolades and awards, and I was very conscious about remaining fully accredited and licensed, to keep everything on the up and up. I had trained with some of the best minds in the field, and my resume was filled with more recommendations than anyone could hope to ask for. My grades in school had been impeccable, and my work ethic had served me well, making my journey through med school about as smooth as possible.
Now, just going back for a moment, when I said I had sex with a patient's husband, I'm not just talking about a normal hook-up, or something where I only learned who he was after the fact. No, I knew exactly what I was doing when I chose to fuck him. And it wasn't just us two, either, it was actually a three-way! And I'm not talking just any standard threesome. I'm talking about me, my patient's handsome studly hubby, and my patient's smoke-show of a mom. I mean, it was an insane thing to involve myself in, but I couldn't deny that it was the best sex I'd ever had!
So, moving on... my initial plan while coming up through school was to go into family therapy, which I did indeed practice for a couple years during my training. But I always held this fundamental fascination with sex and human sexuality, and part of me always wanted to delve into it a little further and really explore that side of things. But, coming from a somewhat conservative family, I feared what their response would be if I told them I wanted to be a sex therapist. Seems like a silly way for a grown woman to think, but I was younger then, and those concerns were really important to me at the time.
But, as I went through school and began my training in family therapy, economic hard times hit, and getting work in that field became slim pickings. It was an expenditure people couldn't justify making in times of hardship, so the jobs began drying up. My adviser did her job and gave me advice, laying it all out for me, letting me know that positions in this field were sparse, and if I wanted to pivot into a different arm of therapy, one that might have more job prospects, now was the time. It seemed like a sign from God to explore a field I found endlessly fascinating, so I decided to just take a chance and go for it.
It was then I switched gears from family therapy to sex therapy. On top of it being a field I really enjoyed delving into, I knew the job prospects were a lot more promising, as it would be likely I'd be the only game in town wherever I ended up. Plus, there was a certain flashiness and cache to the title of "Sex Therapist" that might catch some attention.
Pivoting towards sex therapy required some additional education and training, but it was truly worth it. I have been working in that field for a few years now, and my practice has only grown more successful. While my main focus was on sex related matters, I was still happy to pick up patients who were seeking out a standard therapist. More people needed a regular therapist than a sex therapist. And while I had the market cornered in this neck of the woods in regards to sex therapy, picking up regular patients on top of that helped pad out my schedule and get more people through the door. Additionally, I still did have some carryover patients from my family therapy days, leading to a few awkward moments in the waiting room. But overall, things were running smoothly.
I'm the type of person who is committed to doing my absolute best at whatever I choose to do. I did research into sex therapy even before it became my job, and once I decided to make it a career, I made it a point to read as many clinical studies as I could, some of them going back to the 1800's, and some of them on the bleeding edge of research in this field. It was all extremely fascinating, and I truly loved it. It was what I was meant to do, and I had high hopes for the future. My goal from the beginning was to use my knowledge of both the history and the present of this field to push it forwards in new and exciting ways.
And yeah, I think you could count recent events as a major breakthrough!
