Speaking & Collaboration

I speak on sex, money, the subtle negotiations of desire, economies of care, and the social and psychological architecture of power.

Who Books Me

My speaking work sits at the intersection of sex, psychology, law, and culture.

I speak to clinical audiences, academic audiences, and increasingly, rooms that have nothing to do with therapy at all — because the questions I work with aren't only clinical questions. They're cultural ones.

If your audience is grappling with power, intimacy, money, identity, or the gap between public performance and private life, I likely have something to say that will stay with them.

I'm a fit for:

  • Conferences and panels on culture, technology, and power

  • University and academic settings beyond clinical psychology

  • Media, podcasts, and editorial collaboration

  • Brand and product consultation in wellness, intimacy, and sexual health

  • Festival and ideas-series programming

  • Clinical and professional training (my original home base, and still very much active)

What I Bring

A decade of clinical depth. A trained eye for the psychodynamics of dominance, money, and desire. A voice that doesn't flatten complexity for comfort, and doesn't perform shock for attention.

I speak the way I work: direct and willing to name what's actually happening. My teaching and speaking draw on the same ground as my clinical work, and people tend to leave with language they didn't have before, for things they knew in their bones.
