Private Thoughts provides more than just these women's fantasies, however. It combines new research with the advice of a seasoned sex therapist.

Drawing insights from Wendy's research and advice from her clinical experience as a sex therapist, the book gently guides women to explore their own fantasy style and to recognize the origins of their fantasies. It gives women permission to enjoy their fantasies while also helping them to recognize how some fantasies may be masking emotional pain, which could be detrimental to them and to their relationships.
