Dr  Mia Harris

Dr Mia Harris

Sexologist

Sunshine Sex Therapy

Palmwoods, QLD 4555

In Person + Telehealth

Philosophy & Vision

Mia is a sex therapist, medical doctor and practising artist. She has experience in all areas of health, including sexual health, and obstetrics and gynaecology.

She also has worked with children and young people around childhood sexual abuse and harmful sexual behaviours.

Gender and sexuality has always strongly interested her, and her sex therapy practice draws on her previous professional experience, postgraduate qualification in sexology, and her passion for social justice.

Mia derives joy from listening to her clients' stories and helping them to find clarity.

Background

Mia is a sex therapist and medical doctor, who is based on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. She was a registered nurse before becoming a doctor, and she is a practising artist.

Mia also works for a not-for-profit agency that works in the childhood sexual abuse arena, focussing on harmful sexual behaviours in children and young people.

In the past, Mia has also been a senior lecturer at Griffith Medical School on the Sunshine Coast.

Mia derives joy from working with people, listening to, and learning from their stories, and being of service. She uses an eclectic approach to psychotherapy and counselling, and is guided by what fits for each person she works with.
