A TV sex coach who uses “touch” in his therapy sessions is being sued for rape by a former client.
Michael Lousada, 57, who charges hundreds of pounds for sessions and once appeared on ITV’s This Morning, is accused of assaulting child sexual abuse survivor Ella Janneh, 37, in a civil claim.
The High Court is due to hear that during a £750 session, he “sexually assaulted and raped” her, allegedly telling her his penis was “like a laser beam” that could “burn up trauma”.
The former investment banker turned “sex coach and sex educator” denies the allegations, claiming that it was a consensual encounter and a reasonable treatment for her issues.
We can imagine such approachs. So, you have a sexxual encounter that you didn’t enjoy – under force perhaps. So, have one that you do enjoy and that’ll sort it out, right?
Tho’ that sounds rather more witch doctory than really medical.
His defence case, seen by the Sunday Times, states that he “has worked with approximately 1,000 separate clients (and several thousand appointments) over the years, with approximately 30 to 40 of whom he has engaged in penile penetration”.
Ms Janneh, who has waived her right to anonymity, sought therapy to treat panic attacks she experienced during consensual sex and was seen by Mr Lousada at his clinic in north London in August 2016.
It’s umm, unconventional treatment, no?
’…allegedly telling her his penis was “like a laser beam” that could “burn up trauma”.’
Does her complaint stem perhaps from the fact that it turned out to be more like one of those cheap dot pointers you buy at PetsAtHome for your cat?
“The former investment banker…”
IB seems to attract the worst people.
The “moral” of the story is get and record the consent to such conventual therapy. Other than that it seem like a pretty good line of work.
Isn’t that sort of what ‘Sex Therapists’ do?
BTW Lousada seems to be a Portuguese name – careful Tim!
penis was “like a laser beam
He should have called it his “light sabre”.
Hur hur fnarr fnarr
So really the antithesis of Captain Potato who believes he has a laser-beam mind but is in fact a penis.
Rocco will be along shortly to film the documentary.
“Doc” forgot the first rule of engagement…
Don’t Stick Your Dick In Crazy.
Classic case of “Fuck around, find out”….
If you tell someone let’s do this, it’ll help and then it doesn’t help you’re in doo doo. Woo can’t really operate with all the necessary caveats, that a doctor will trot out for an operation or medication.
“ If you tell someone let’s do this, it’ll help and then it doesn’t help you’re in doo doo”
Conditional consent sounds like a nightmare, so would that mean that trying for a child and woman doesn’t get pregnant then it was non-consensual as the conditions of consent were not later satisfied.
