Perhaps you have been working through your areas of trauma for some time now, but they seem to keep returning time and time again..., leaving you exhausted, bewildered and feeling stuck. What if some intensive Psychotherapy work could be useful in helping you to break through some of those barriers? Sometimes an hour once or twice per month is just not enough. Indulge yourself in two, three, or five hours of intensive therapy designed especially to address your own deep and complex experiences of concern. Our time together may include Hypnotherapy, EMDR, Art Therapy, Writing, talk therapy and other forms of creative therapies.

Hi. I'm Brandon and I'm a gay, CIS-male psychotherapist and I have been serving the community in the heart of Atlanta for well over a decade. Up until I established Seeking Harmony Counseling, my focus has been in treating some of the most vulnerable among us. This is evident in the work I did in the eleven years I spent with Grady Memorial Hospital. Working at Grady gave me a great deal of experience in helping individuals struggling with "severe & persistent forms of mental illness" (or SPMI). This category includes diagnoses with the most debilitating symptoms such as mood disorders

Sex-Positive, Kink Allied Therapists
Why might an individual want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
A sex-positive or kinky individual may want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist because the client may feel safer and more supported discussing their experiences and challenges. A therapist who identifies as kink-friendly will have experience with clients having diverse sexual preferences and will likely be nonjudgmental and supportive about issues brought to the table. It is important to note that sex-positive, kink-allied individuals may find equal success with therapists who do not have such specialized knowledge and background. The most important factor in the success of therapy is for the client and practitioner to form a strong, trusting bond.

Do therapists have special training to gain expertise in sex-positive, kink-allied treatment?
Generally, no. There are limited training programs and unofficial accreditations that therapists can pursue, but a therapist’s expertise will ultimately come from their previous experience with similar clients, their engagement with organizations that promote sex positivity or kink-allied lifestyles, and the importance they place on safety and cultural sensitivity.

How can individuals recognize a good sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
An experienced therapist is able to help clients explore their sexual identity and expression and relieve any discomfort or stigma attached to discussing such matters and the client’s overall challenges. A therapist who is sex-positive and kink-allied is able to create an environment that honors a client’s experience and sexual preferences. To recognize a good therapist, clients can simply ask directly about topics and issues important to them and gauge their comfort level and connection with a clinician based on the responses.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist with a focus on sex positivity and alternative sexual lifestyles?
Some individuals may feel most comfortable knowing that the clinician they’re working with has a commitment to creating an atmosphere of sex positivity and has experience with relationship diversity and alternative relationship structures. Working with a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist may help clients respect their own challenges and improve identity-affirming treatment.
