I also maintain professional collaborations with Certified Sex Therapists, LCSWs, and Psychologists to ensure you have access to the best care and advice whenever it may be needed, while providing the counseling community with a rare insider experience and perspective many in the practice do not or cannot have. If you are looking for confidence, knowledge, or just a friendly and non-judgemental ear who might be able to offer some insight, look no further. Call me. *Sessions available on and off premise, via phone or skype, and at various events. 1hr free no-obligation consultation appointment available.

I became a therapist to serve my community of kinksters and ethical nonmonogamous folks who are so often discriminated against. I provide mental health services for individuals or relationships including families, couples, and polycules in an affirming, anti-racist, and social justice informed way.

I work with individuals and couples (ages 10 & up) as they process life's challenges, including: anxiety & depression, relational difficulties or endings, spiritual struggles, abuse & trauma recovery, and sexuality issues. I welcome clients of all sexual orientations, gender identities, levels of romantic/sexual interest, and relational dynamics as well as ethnicities & spiritual beliefs in the fullness of who they are. I utilize an experiential and attachment-based perspective to partner with my clients. Our time together offers a non-judgmental space for you to face and process life's unexpected events. I am also trained in EMDR, a therapy used to reprocess traumatic memories so they no longer hold the same emotional power over our present. My full fee is $125 for 60 minutes with 1-2 people and $220 for 90 minutes with 3+ people.

Together, we'll use your own intelligence, creativity and energy to create meaning from life's difficulties and challenges. We'll work together to renew your faith in your own strength and ability to take life head on. Whether you're new to therapy or are no stranger to the couch, I'm excited to learn about you and to combine everything that you have to offer with my own expertise in order to create a unique and meaningful therapy experience. I work with individuals, families, and couples to create solutions and positive growth in the face of diverse challenges and difficulties. I believe that we are all unique, intelligent, resourceful and creative, and that all people deserve help that reflects this. LGBT, queer, intersex, poly, kink, bdsm friendly and aware services

Professor Sex is medically accurate, empirically informed, pleasure-based, inclusive, affirming sex education.

Questions, choices, realities that need to be faced and handled. You can talk to a clock watching technician……Or you can talk to an open, honest, non judgmental real person. I have over 40 years of real, diverse Lifestyle experience involving BDSM, Ds, Swinging, poly, bi, gay and other forms of sexuality, relationships and life choices. I also have over 25 years of experience working as a professional counselor with all the rules of documentation, being uninvolved, managed care and rules about what you can and can't discuss. Now, I practice by the rules of true knowledge, Privacy, Honor, Dignity, Respect and doing what is really best for a person in need. This is not an hour a week and wait for the next session….this is if you need to, you call, text, email, smoke signals….in other words someone who is available when you need them…not just when it is convenient and scheduled. I am also an Ordained Minister providing all appropriate services in that vein….but no Dogma to be found here….Judgment is left for others to use and abuse… There are no limits on topic or focus other than making diagnosis or suggesting medication choices or the like. If you want a label or need someone to monitor your medications, there are many who will perform that set of tasks for you. Here it is about answers and putting them into action ASAP with honest help and support. Drop me a line, ask some questions, see if you feel like I'm someone you can talk with and who has the experience you need to deal with the topics that matter.
