Poly, non-monogamous, and mixed-orientation relationships are just as diverse as monogamous ones. Folks can have any number of intimacy dynamics and creative agreements that may need to be renegotiated from time to time, and that requires knowledge of ourselves and clear communication. While not every client will have a need to discuss their relationships or sexuality, every client deserves a therapist who is accepting and affirming of their relationship choices. I work with diverse genders, sexualities, and relationships. I see clients across the lifespan (kids, teens, and adults), for individual, relationship, and family therapy. In particular, I specialize in working with the minorities within the broader LGBT minority, such as poly, bi, kinky, and genderqueer folks. In addition to my private practice, I facilitate a drop-in group for bisexual and bi-curious men (“men” inclusive of trans* folks) at Fenway Community Health in Boston, addressing topics such as Getting Past Stereotypes, Monogamy and Polyamory, Coming Out, and Queering Sexuality. I am a member of WPATH, the World Professional Association for Transgender Health, and have received the Unsung Hero Award from the Bisexual Resource Center.
