Hi, I’m Earl Yarington, a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), and adjunct instructor at Indiana University East. I hold a PhD in Literature and Criticism with a focus on feminism, women writers, and writing composition. My academic work spans topics including nineteenth-century popular women writers, feminism, masculinity, digital media, sexual identities, and the intersections of childhood and sexuality. This scholarly background enhances my therapeutic work, particularly in helping clients navigate identity, self-expression, and the complexities of socially sensitive topics.
I specialize supporting individuals facing anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive challenges, and concerns related to sexuality and paraphilia. My research interests include child sexual abuse, addiction, domestic abuse, sexual trauma, sex offending, virtual sexual behavior, paraphilic interests, and broader social justice advocacy.
I use a range of therapeutic modalities, including Inference-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention therapy (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and both play and talk therapy. My work is rooted in empathy, respect, and inclusivity. I want you to feel heard and valued!

I work with people that have issues related to paraphilia (sexual challenges) and those with OCD as well as neurodivergent clients. I am non-judgmental and help clients find acceptance and a path forward despite the challenges they face.
