Spotlight: Logan Levkoff, Ph.D.

Expert in “Difficult Conversations”

Though she is an internationally recognized expert on sexuality and relationships, she fearlessly uses her online platform to encourage honest conversation about provocative subjects. Logan speaks on a wide range of issues, including sexual health and sexuality education, parenting, combatting antisemitism in school settings, trends in sexuality, deconstructing double standards, relationship hurdles and intimacy, consent, and the role of sexuality and representation (or lack thereof) in pop culture, business, and politics.

For over twenty years, Logan has been teaching, designing, and implementing

sexuality education programs, faculty development, and parent education in many

secular and religious independent and public schools, universities, medical schools,

community groups, and global networking organizations, including YPO/WPO. Logan’s

expertise with teens and parents has been profiled in numerous publications, including

The New York Times. Recently, her experience fighting antisemitism was featured in the
