Psychotherapists - Licensed or Registered

I offer therapy and counseling to help individuals and their partners with relationships and communication. Polyamory may be a framework, but our human needs are still universal - such as connection, love, understanding and trust. What’s different, then? Identifying and understanding all of the thoughts and feelings that might arise (they are all just part of our human experience), and finding ways to allow them, share them, and hold them with caring.

I work with all ages capable of engaging in talk therapy, and with all lifestyles. I am supportive of whatever individuals decide to co-create together. However that looks. I came of age and lived in the Bay Area for so long that I have a sense of the natural variation of human experience that transcends labels and paradigms.

My standard fee is $100 for a 50-minute session. Sometimes longer sessions are more effective. It all depends on the situation and the people. I am a provider with most managed care organizations in the area, and we can speak about how that might work if you want to use health insurance.

My website is a good place to visit if you wish to get a sense of the flavor of who I am, my perspective, and how I work with people. Please feel free to be in touch if you have any questions.

Greetings, I am a relationship and family therapist here in Boulder Colorado with immediate availability for both in-person and online appointments (for those located in Colorad). I work with all sorts of folx including non-monogamous, poly, queer, trans, and kinky. My work is rooted in narrative therapy and strives to amplify marginalized voices as we untangle constraining stories to seek agency, autonomy, and power over your and your community’s stories.

Sometimes in our lives we get surrounded by systems that are supposed to offer us a place of safety, protection and growth become the opposite of these traits. These systems can be organized around our family members, or our beliefs or even just our general social network. Often we don’t recognize the results of these systems, but instead find ourselves stuck, anxious, unable or maybe even unwilling to move from the lives we have had to live as a result of these systems.

I specialize in working with individuals, groups or couples who have emerged from these systems.

My approach is feedback centered, collaborative, and goal-driven. I place special emphasis on the balance between being creative, in the moment, with the use of a personalized structure that supports the overall experience, creating safety, openness and being seen.

Nashville is still a traditional town, one that’s brimming with faith-based counselors and conventional therapists who cater to clients in traditional marriages with traditional family values. While I am respectful of all faiths and traditions, I also whole-heartedly support alternative lifestyles and non-traditional relationships of every kind, and I am deeply committed to helping people whose belief systems, values, and identities fall outside of cultural norms.

Working from a foundation of honesty, integrity, and consent, I offer practical skills, a trained perspective, and a safe space to work through challenging feelings and new experiences. I work with a wide array of people and issues, including couples new to ethical non-monogamy; polyamorous relationships; polyfidelitous relationships; swingers; BDSM partners; agreements and agreement violations; managing new relationship energy; coping with jealousy; fostering compersion; and sexual health and safety.

I help adults from the straight and LGBTQ communities and from the poly, kink, cisgender, trans, genderqueer and nonbinary communities with concerns including challenges in their relationships and poly relationship structures, feeling stressed and anxious, feeling badly about themselves, loneliness, challenges with being LGBTQ, sexuality, sexual orientation and gender (including transition), and challenges with alternative sexualities. My work is confidential and collaborative, and my office is a safe space to explore your concerns and how we can work through them together. I address all aspects of my clients’ lives including friendships, family, culture and spirituality. My approach to psychotherapy is cognitive behavioural, narrative, relational, solution-focused, strengths-based and anti-oppressive.

I have a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology from the University of Toronto, a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology from the University of British Columbia, and an Advanced Certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy from The Hincks-Dellcrest Centre / University of Toronto. My work is inclusive and informed by anti-oppression training. I am a Founding Member of the Canadian Association of Cognitive Behavioural Therapies, a longstanding member of the LGBTQ community in Toronto and a Member of the Canadian Professional Association for Transgender Health. I am a kink-aware therapist.

David Ortmann is a San Francisco based psychotherapist, sex therapist and author. His areas of clinical focus and study are the sexuality of the BDSM and Leather communities, polyamorous and consensually non-monogamous communities, concepts and theories of masculinity, and the processes of human attachment and differentiation. He speaks locally and nationally in an effort to promote Poly, Leather, and BDSM community visibility and improve clinical psychotherapeutic interventions for these populations. David is a member of the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom (NCSF), The American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT), the Northern California Society for Psychoanalytic Psychology (NCSPP) and is a founding member of the Community-Academic Consortium for Research on Alternative Sexualities (CARAS).

VortexHealing® - www.vortexhealing.org - works with Divine Healing Energy, Magic, and Divine Consciousness.

Vortex Healing is similar to Reiki where divine healing energy is channeled through a person into the receiver. Vortex Healing becomes different however because it also works directly from divine consciousness. Divine Consciousness is the highest healing vibration you can ever experience. It literally heals and transforms the illusion of separation from the Divine. Any disharmony or trauma within your system; physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and even karmic can be healed on its deepest level. During a session you receive very sophisticated VortexHealing® techniques coming from many divine energetic levels and frequencies simultaneously. Frequencies range from the very light and gentle to the tremendously deep and intense. This works with the rule that there are many levels and dimensions to our consciousness. These levels contain the deepest and hardest to reach levels of negative conditioning. VortexHealing® reaches ALL these levels!

Release of these blockages promotes the greatest acceleration of change and transformation. A few VortexHealing® sessions equal the amount of healing work that may take months or even years to accomplish with other therapies. I say with the utmost confidence that when you walk out of one of my sessions you will leave a transformed soul. - Does phone consultation

I completed degrees in science and philosophy before qualifying as a counsellor, and I combine the analytic strength of these disciplines with the warmth of humanistic therapy. Following the person-centred approach, I believe that every person has the capacity within themselves for growth and healing. My job is to provide an empathetic and supportive environment for that capacity to unfold. My work is also influenced by cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), meaning that I help clients explore the unstated, often unhelpful, assumptions behind their responses to challenging situations. I also draw from various other theories and methods, including existential psychotherapy, transactional analysis, and mindfulness practices. I have read very broadly, within psychotherapy and related disciplines, and try to offer whatever I think would be helpful to each client as an individual without ever being prescriptive.

I have had a varied career, and I believe that familiarity with the variety of human experience is one of my great strengths as a therapist. I approach each client with warmth, an open mind, and a sense of their unique perspective on the world. I particularly welcome inquiries from clients who may worry about judgement or misunderstanding. This includes people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual or otherwise embody gender, romantic and sexual diversity; people in non-monogamous relationships, who participate in BDSM, do any form of sex work, who use psychoactive drugs, belong to other minority groups, or who otherwise feel marginalised or under-served by the counselling profession.

My practice is based in South East London, and I try to offer flexible arrangements. I work both short- and long-term, and offer online session in addition to face-to-face. Please get in touch if you have any access needs or questions!

Counseling is a partnership.

The goal is to help you live a better life, have better relationships, and feel better being you.

I know how hard it is to ask for help. The decision to find a therapist often comes at times of stress and change. I am a supportive, non-judgmental therapist. Together we will identify your goals, recognizing and building on your strengths and unique qualities. We will find realistic, reasonable strategies that work for you. I am a LGBTQIA-Affirming, sex-positive therapist. My pronouns are she/her/hers. I accept many insurances and private pay/out of network. I serve adults and seniors.

As a BACP registered counsellor/psychotherapist, I provide face to face as well as online counselling and supervision to individuals across the UK. I identify as bisexual/Queer and much of my work is supporting clients who are LGBT+ or questioning their gender and/sexuality. I am a sex positive, LGBT affirmative, Kink and Poly friendly practitioner. I have a specialist qualification in gender and sexuality (MA in Gender, Sexuality and Culture) as well as in working online (Certified Cyber Therapist). I have supported clients around a wide variety of issues including depression, bereavement, anxiety, abuse and identity issues.

My number one goal as a psychotherapist and coach is to provide a space for you to talk, heal, grow, try new ways of being, and become empowered to take your next steps towards the life you want. In business, we seldom think twice about hiring experts and consultants, consulting with a board of directors, or searching for the right mentor to help us create success. History proves that teams succeed where individuals cannot. Why offer less than the same to yourself? If you are tired of walking the path alone, I am here to walk it with you.

I enjoy working with people who think and live on the edges of the normal bell curve. I tend to focus on adults, 30 and up, as individuals and in various relationship configurations. People come to me for a variety of reasons: relationship issues, adjustment to life changes (job loss, divorce, death, breakups), emotional/mental tuneups, rediscovering who they are and why they are here, taking back their lives from anxiety, depression, trauma, and so on. Whatever the reason, I use counseling and coaching techniques to help each person develop and activate a plan to move forward and create more satisfying results in life.

People of all persuasions are welcome at my door: straight, LGBTQ, married, partnered, poly, pagan, Christian, “spiritual” . . . whatever your identification, I look forward to hearing your story and helping you write the next chapter.
