Spiritual and Psychological Counseling
Services: You are welcome to talk to me in my offices in San Francisco, Berkeley, Pt. Reyes Station, or on the phone, online or on Skype, whereever you are!
I work on a tax-deductible sliding scale and my mid-range fee is $ 90 for a 50-minute session (every week, every two weeks, once a month consultations or check-ins, as need be!)
Contact me to set up a phone talk and a free try-out meeting.
This is NOT THERAPY. Just plain talk between people, based on common sense, on my 25 years of experience as a counselor/mentor/guide — and on a lot of life experience.
Talk about experience — I have intensely worked through my own straight, bi, lesbian polyamorous and monogamous relationships. My book “True Secrets of Lesbian Desire: How to Keep Sex Alive in Long-Term Relationships” (see book page) gives you an idea of what I know and how I work. I am classically trained in psychology (see Professional Background) but work with an unconventional vision of life and a spiritual outlook on insight and healing, both of which are usually lacking in “therapy.”
My focus is LGTBQ couples and individuals, but everyone is welcome: there is no limitation to human problems and human solutions!

Coaching in the Dr. Simeons hCG Protocol
for healthy weight-loss
My partner, author and expert in eating disorders, Kim Chernin, Ph.D., and I are launching our new website about hCG, addressing the prevalent obesity crisis, our “hCG Women’s Village” (also on YouTube):

We found hCG a highly effective and beneficent tool that also offers a profound pychological exploration. We studied, tried it, got certified at the most advanced research clinic in Buenos Aires, and now we would like to share this knowledge in our Women’s Village. You will find many reflections there on emotional eating, menopause, cravings, as well as surprises, a Corner Store, and a Café to share thoughts and experiences.
SERVICES: We want to provide the most caring, woman-friendly place to address issues of weight and health. We offer expert guidance in individual and group settings. Contact us at hcgcybervillage.com.
