Psychotherapists - Licensed or Registered

Professional specialties and skills

Hi, I’m Jody (she/her) and I am a queer, sex-positive, kink-affirming and trauma-informed psychosexual therapist, who understands the impact that sexual problems can have on a person’s relationships, sexual expression, and sense of self. I used an integrative blend of different therapeutic techniques to tailor the therapy experience to you and your unique needs in a sensitive, informed, and empowering way.

I am a GSRD psychosexual therapist, meaning that I support and celebrate and understand the intricacies of gender, sexuality and relationship diversity both within the therapy space and beyond it.

I am a kink-experienced and kink-affirming psychosexual therapist, meaning that I have a deep understanding and non-judgemental stance on sexual practices that fall into the realms of BDSM, Kink and Fetish.

I am a sex-worker affirmative psychosexual therapist and appreciate that consensual, non-exploitative sex work is a valid profession, in whatever form it takes.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community myself and as a trans ally, I understand how minority stress, heteronormativity and harmful narratives can negatively impact on sense of self, sexual function and sexual expression.

I work with individuals, couples and people in multi-partnered relationships who are wanting to explore, learn about and/or improve elements of their sexual experiences and expression. Are you experiencing a sexual problem? I could be the therapist for you.

Language(s) spoken: English

Populations served - ages, concerns, etc.: People aged 18+ in the UK, issues with sexual pain, loss of or changed sexual desire, erection and ejaculation problems, orgasm difficulties, sexual empowerment and education, relational and intimacy problems.

I specialize in working with couples, teens, substance abuse / addiction, and the LGBTQ community. I am a sex positive therapist and I have a lot of experience working with poly individuals and couples. In general I practice from an attachment perspective which focuses on important relationships in our lives and the innate human need to feel loved, supported, and connected.

Individual/Couples/Family therapy and energy healing. Ordained minister for rituals and weddings etc…

I provide therapy and counseling services including individual counseling, couples counseling, marriage counseling, intimacy counseling and communication counseling to individuals and couples experiencing any of the following; loss of sexual desire, painful intercourse, sexual and arousal difficulties, out-of-control sexual behaviors, infidelity, LGBTQ issues, difficulties following childhood abuse, anxiety and depression, and alcohol and chemical dependency/abuse. I also provide sexual health and relationship workshops (topics of focus vary) and intensive outpatient programs.

However you structure your relationships, sometimes it’s good to have some help. You may want to deal with an immediate issue, either for yourself or for your relationship. Or you may want to explore the emotional or spiritual side of what you do. Either way, you may discover pleasantly surprising things about your interior life.

Joe Turner works with adults and elders with a wide range of life styles and orientations. We may work with patterns of thinking, or with your deep emotions. We can include emotionally supportive hypnotherapy if that’s appropriated. Your needs set the pace. There’s no fee to chat, to see if you feel a personal match. Contact me today.

Do you need help with relational issues and have you found therapists who lack understanding or who have judgements about your lifestyle? I specialize in gender, sexuality, and relationship diversity. I work with LGBT+ individuals, couples, and other relationship groupings, artists, Burning Man attendees, and others who have felt judged or misunderstood by therapists. I am BDSM and open relationship knowledgeable. I also enjoy working with therapists-in-training who are doing their own work to become better therapists and with new parents struggling to figure how their lives have changed. I have completed Level 1 Gottman Method training as well as Level 1 Internal Family Systems training.

I offer expertise in communication, polyamory, and open relationships. I am interested in exploring new archetypes for masculinity and femininity. I support people creating rites of passage in their own lives: emerging from the family as a differentiated individual, the transition into parenthood, the beginning or ending of relationships.

Having attended Pacifica Graduate Institute, I approach the work from a Jungian background. I enjoy working with archetypes, dream material, play therapy for adults, and exploring past experiences for present benefit. I also use Family Systems Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy to help clients find more harmony in their lives. Call for a free 20 minute phone consultation and start your journey.

• LGBTQIA2S+ and BIPOC identifying and specializing therapist experienced in under-celebrated communities inclusive of poly, kink, and alternative lifestyle. Traditional + Complementary (energy work) therapies for a comprehensive approach to healing.
• EMDR Trained, Spiritual Practitioner and Educator
• English and Spanish
• Ages 18+

Providing non-judgmental services to Adults and teens since 2005. Specialties include Anger management, couples counseling, EMDR (trauma reduction therapy) to name a few. I typically work with adults and teens. I speak English and geek.

I see individual adult clients who are struggling with aspect of being in poly relationships. I tend to explore childhood relationships with parents and other caregivers that are contributing to issues around intimacy in adult relationships.

A Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I am well prepared to assist tweens, teens, adults and families to address a wide range of issues, including PTSD, Depression, Anxiety Disorders, Addictions, and Oppositional Defiant Disorder, each of which is often related to past and recent traumatic events.

I am trained in a wide range of therapeutic approaches, most of which fall under the heading of “Cognitive Behavior Therapy.” These include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Bilateral Stimulation (EMDR), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT), Hypnotherapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

A Board-Certified Master Addictions Counselor, I can help people with issues with alcohol, nicotine and other drugs, as well as “process addictions” such as gambling, online gaming, sex, pornography, etc. I am not a big believer in the concept of “addiction” as applied to sex or pornography. I prefer to focus on changing those behaviors my clients find problematic, rather than making as to those behaviors’ causes.

I am almost violently nonjudgmental and feel that everyone should be free to live their lives to the fullest, so long as their behavior is fully consensual and not harmful to themselves or others. This includes a strong and committed belief that polyamory, monogamy, and pretty much any other consensual lifestyle is perfectly valid and healthy.

A Holistic Sex Therapist, I integrate an understanding of the range of normal sexual behavior. I find that most sexual issues stem from misunderstandings and lack of information. In fact, even most physicians and therapists know very little about normal human sexuality! I do not assume that one’s “kink” or “poly” lifestyle causes, or is even related to, the problems they experience in life.

I am currently limited to working with people in the great states of Idaho and Utah, but I am seeking licensure in several other states. A Board Certified Telemental Health Provider, I have been doing video counseling for more than three years. Since physical touch is not a part of my practice, I find that there is nothing I cannot do via secure video that I couldn’t do in my office. I would love to talk with you to see how I might be able to help you live your best life.

I am a sex positive Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a private practice in New York City. My clients are adults of all genders and sexual orientation. I am knowledgeable and familiar with non-heteronormative sexual lifestyles, including polyamory, kink, and BDSM. I am also active in these communities.

I utilize a varied range of treatment modalities, and I’m trained in EMDR. I have over a decade in the field as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I worked with the Fire Department of New York Counseling Service Unit, where I started the day before 9/11.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with extensive experience working with the LGBTQ community including polyamorous, transgendered, and nonbinary clients. I work with adolescents ages 14 and up, and adults.

Licensed in 1987, I have served the LGBT and gay leather communities for 33 years. For the last 20 of those years I have also served the broader kink, poly and CNM communities. I have training in Emotionally Focused Therapy, which of course I re-vision to include all consenting non-monogamous relationships. After all, infants don’t bond to just one person, and neither need adults. I have provided now countless workshops on poly and kink to our community, and also presented on poly and kink to professional groups. Over the last decade I have been the Clinical Supervisor for a number of GSRD-positive therapists who were working toward their licensure. Jennifer Rehor, LMFT and I co-founded the San Diego GSRD-Affirmative-Therapists Forum, which meets twice a year (Covid allowing.)

Welcome! I’m John Szudera, Clinical Director and Owner of Canopy Behavioral Health. I’m a licensed professional counselor and marriage and family therapist serving clients in Colorado and Idaho. I have an office in Broomfield, CO, where I see in-office clients, and I provide telehealth services to clients throughout CO and ID.

I provide services to individual adults and relationships of all kinds. I specialize in relationship discourse (all orientations), poly/CNM relationship dynamics, LGBTQIA+ issues, neurodiversity, autism, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I am a firm believer that relationships and connection are intrinsic to personal development and each person’s values are important in the development of a course of treatment based on the goals and desired outcome clients have selected.

He incorporates transgenerational, social justice, and relational perspectives in identifying and moving toward client goals.

John is an LGBTQ-affirmative and polyam-affirmative therapist with strong clinical interests in experiences related to transitions in identity, consensual non-monogamy or non-traditional relationships, and experiences of discrimination.

I work with persons in various open, semi-open, and closed relational groups, including single persons trying to figure out what relationships are best for them. Also, I’ve experience working with trans persons, persons who are HIV positive, and the additional complexities of interracial, intercultural, intergenerational relationships within BDSM dynamics as well.

I work with arty, creative, queer, pagan, non-monogamous, kinky, and neurodivergent individuals who are navigating trauma, grief, and other challenges. My clients often identify as the “weirdos and nerds” of their communities, with a deep love for learning and personal growth.

I specialize in trauma and grief in their many forms and effects. I work with these deeply personal challenges, along with related coping mechanisms:

• Substance use
• Sleep and eating issues
• Relationship instability
• Low self-worth
• Irritability or anger

Trauma manifests uniquely in each person’s life, and a truly “trauma-informed” practice is adaptive and responsive to these varied needs. I also provide insights and techniques to help with relationships, cognition, and emotional regulation.

I work with people who are endeavouring to create deep change in their lives and want to better know themselves. I work from an integrative perspective that includes Internal Family Systems therapy, somatic and relational approaches, mindfulness, and other experiential modalities. I work with people aged 16 and upwards, with concerns ranging from anxiety, depression, identity journeys, meaning crisis, chronic pain, relationship issues, stress, and more.

I blend psychodynamic therapy with CBT, ACT and DBT, using a client-centered and trauma-informed approach. I am experienced in harm reduction and LGBTQI support, and am kink, polyamory and sex work positive. I integrate mindfulness and creativity into therapy, valuing direct feedback and home. I aim to build a supportive, growth-oriented therapeutic relationship.
