The basics of now and what makes me unique.
I am a Sex Therapist, individual psychotherapist, and marriage and family therapist shifting from a ten-year career in the high-profile major label sector of the music industry in Los Angeles and Nashville, with a background in artist management, artist development, music publishing, producing, directing, marketing, product development, branding and creative direction as well as managing and developing content for lifestyle brands and working in corporations, boutiques and entrepreneurial capacities. Having this background working with various high profile professional artists, record executives, and personalities, I offer a unique perspective to meeting the unpredictable nature of the human spirit in the space with me. I specialize in sex therapy; including but not limited to kink, safe kink play, BDSM and BDSM power dynamics in relationships, nonmonogamous relationships; including polyamory, and alternative relationships and relationship anarchy, psychodynamic, the psychospiritual, depth psychology; including but not limited to archetypes, complex, dream tending, the integration of consciousness, queer relationships and sexuality and queer identity in relationships, and the integration of BDSM theory and psychodynamic modality.
How I got here.
I spent many years living everywhere but the present, accomplishment-oriented taking every opportunity to further my career in the music industry, spanning labels such as Geffen/Interscope/A&M, Universal Music Publishing Group, boutique management and my own record label and music publishing company, fostering and developing independent artists. Although I was deeply connected to music and the songwriting process and can look back upon a successful career, I yearned for a deeper connection with myself, people in my life, the living breathing world around me, and the human beings behind their songs, and knew I needed a change. Due to events in my past, my mind and my body were in separation and deep in my core was hardness and self-judgment. My path lead me to a celestial connection through which I learned the way to my heart for the first time. With the tender guidance of my teacher, gentleness and self-compassion were cultivated and a new way of living began.
My values.
Deep in my core is a desire to do my part to improve the condition of living beings and am aware that the path to happiness, healthiness, and ease is not a one-sized-fits-all phenomena. I seek every opportunity to guide those into experiencing their own aliveness toward awakening to the joy and fulfillment of life itself.
What inspires me creatively, spiritually, and poetically is at the intersection of psychology, Buddhist & Sufi philosophy, Persian Mysticism, Nonviolence™, art and music making, with the ebb and flow of the ocean, the depth of the forest, and the many different cultures and colors of human spirit. I believe that integrative, experiential therapies, such as art, music, nature, ocean experiences, surfing, meditation, yoga, are ideal for treating mental illness. As a human, I am queer, an artist and mostly engage in a non-monogamous lifestyle and egange in kink and BDSM play in my personal life and produce/direct erotic content.
