I was invited on the Gay Men's Brotherhood podcast to address a topic that affects many but is often shrouded in silence and stigma: sexual abuse.


I got to share my expertise working with trauma and sexual abuse recovery.We explored the impact that sexual abuse can have on one's mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Some of the topics covered in this episode are:


◾Ways in which abuse can occur in childhood and/or adulthood

◾Setting and maintaining sexual boundaries

◾Navigating consent in queer spaces

◾Common misconceptions we have about sexual abuse

◾Long-term effects that survivors may experience

◾Unique challenges faced by gay men who have endured abuse

◾Types of therapeutic approaches available for survivors


Whether you are a survivor, know someone who is, or simply want to understand more about this crucial issue, this episode offers a compassionate and informative perspective on a topic that deserves our attention and empathy.​ Check out the full episode here.
