Education and Training

Greetings, Friend

I’m sharing some highlights of my experience, clients, and subject matter expertise here.

Modern Sex Therapy Institutes:

This organization is providing coursework and supervision as I walk the path towards AASECT certification. Following is a short list of study areas: Biospychosocial Model of Pelvic Pain, Kink-aware Psychotherapy, Genograms, Black Liberation in Sex Therapy, Working with LGBTQIA+ Clients, Trauma-informed Sex Therapy, Diversity in Sex Therapy, Ethics, Substance Abuse and Sex Therapy, Problematic Sexual Behaviors, and more… This is an incredible program that I would recommend to anyone contemplating pursuing AASECT certification.
