In San Francisco mid-1970’s, psychologist Katie Langley has two big problems: no job and no spark in the bedroom.  Her only employment offer: a sex therapist in a clinic for men. Fearing her husband’s disapproval, she lies and tells him she’s a counselor at an all-boys Catholic school.  But Katie soon discovers she's not the only one with secrets… and by the end, everyone is unzipped.
