Steven Ing, MFT

For the last 35 years, in both his private and forensic practices, Steven Ing, Marriage and Family Therapist, has helped thousands of clients begin sorting out how they, too, can have truly intimate and joyfully happy lives with their partners. His books, articles, podcasts, and public appearances continue to create freer conversations around love, relationships, and human sexuality that are safe…but not so safe that they cross the line into boring.

Steven’s insights are founded on the notion that a truly human and humane sex education would emphasize relationships as the context of human sexuality in all its beauty. He has literally written the book on human sexual needs, We’re All Like This an accessible and straightforward text used in human sexuality classes at the university level. The book has been excerpted in a nationally distributed text published by McGraw-Hill.

His Psychology Today articles have been read by millions, and he recently published a science fiction novel, Polliwog, about human sexuality from a feminist magical realism perspective. His TEDx Talk, “What’s Your Magic Sex Number?” has been seen by thousands who have appreciated the simplicity and humor of his take on sexual compatibility.

In 2022, Steven survived a murder attempt when he was stabbed multiple times in his office, an experience that has greatly informed his notions on public and clinician safety.

In 2023, the UNR School of Medicine appointed Steven as a community faculty member to teach psychiatry residents and physicians how to talk about human sexuality. He is currently working on two new books: a guide to managing love intelligently and a post-Freudian theory on human sexual development.
