“I’m Not Your Guru—I’m the One Who Hands You the Matches.”
Writer. Certified Sex Therapist. Shame-Slaying Nerd. Chaos with Credentials.
WHO TF IS DR MISTY?
WHO TF IS DR MISTY?
I’m Dr. Misty Gibson
I’m a certified sex therapist, writer, educator, and lifelong shame-slayer.
I created Untamed Ember for the misfits, the maskers, the ones who’ve been told their pleasure is “too much,” “too weird,” or “too complicated.”
You know—the ones who grew up thinking sex was dangerous, desire was shameful, and their bodies were something to manage instead of celebrate.
Sound familiar? Cool. You’re my people.
With 20+ years of experience in education, mental health, trauma, and sexuality, I blend hard science, savage storytelling, and zero tolerance for bullshit.
I’m here to unlearn the scripts we were given, reclaim what was always ours, and light the damn match on everything that told us to stay small.
MY WORK, MY WHY
MY WORK, MY WHY
This Isn’t About Sex. It’s About Freedom.
I’ve taught grad students, supervised therapists, and run hundreds of sessions helping people untangle their desire from their trauma.
But even with all the degrees and certifications, I still spent years skipping my own rest, faking safety in my body, and intellectualizing pleasure instead of feeling it.
Untamed Ember is the work I needed—when I was dissociating through sex, when I was stuck in therapist burnout, when I thought desire was for other people. The polished ones. The regulated ones. The “normal” ones.
Spoiler: There is no normal. There’s only connection, curiosity, and reclaiming your own erotic truth.
