Last month Facebook canceled our Naked Therapy page leaving thousands of fans in the lurch with no response to our request to reinstate the page . While it’s common knowledge that Facebook is run in a conservative and autocratic nature, it’s never-the-less is frustrating that they dictate the reality that people are exposed to. But in a way, we take it as a compliment. We know that Naked Therapy is new and controversial. The page is threatening because it is smart & sexy. But wait – I thought you could only be one or...

To supporters everywhere: Now that Anthony Weiner has decided to “enter treatment,” I am posting this to ask YOU to help me stop the misguided public discourse over Rep. Weiner and the issue of “indiscretion by men in high places.” This misunderstanding is typified by this June 11 article in the NY TImes: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/12/weekinreview/12women.html?_r=1 As I recently posted, http://sarahwhitedaily.com/2011/06/07/preventing-arousal-frenzy/, what happened to Mr. Weiner, and to so many men before him (and...

I had a great session the other day where my client discussed his search for “his muse.” We talked at length about the importance of having something that you personally care about – a way in which you can interact with the world with positive passion. It may be creating art, joining a political organization, planting a garden, etc… What is your “muse”? Please send your thoughts via the comment form below! ...
read moreWhy Naked Therapy?
Despite the fact that men commit suicide and homicide, end up homeless or in prison, and land in psychiatric hospitals or rehab clinics at much higher rates than women, most men avoid, belittle, and just “don’t get” therapy.
