Elliott Sequoia Endre, The Therapist for Sexual Rebels, MA, LMFT

Many couples+ and individuals I work with are on the brink of expansion. Perhaps you are navigating new sexual interests, ethical non-monogamy, or dating for money. Maybe you've been polyamorous for years but are navigating the transition to include new partners into a shared household. Maybe it's time to explain it to the kids. Often there is an income, power, or sexual desire discrepancy causing friction that deserves tending to create sustainable dynamics. Many of the individuals I work with traverse the world with partners, genders, fetishes, or professional experiences that are misunderstood by the dominant culture. I work frequently with people recovering from orthodox experience. I am in service to your healing, keeping you connected to a grounded source of abundance, gaining skills to navigate personal and professional dynamics, and being in keen awareness of your power. I provide sex-positive, body-positive therapy for individuals, couples, and constellations embracing that consensual sexual activities are fundamentally healthy and pleasurable. I support folks navigating their relationship to substances and integrating psychedelic experience. I use emotionally focused, somatic, and attachment-focused evidence-based practices informed by Womanism, Jungian, and Transpersonal Psychology‍. I’m an immigrant. I’m queer. I’m non-binary. I am deeply nourished supporting people therapeutically and consider this work a personal calling. Together we can work to identify values, make meaning, integrate experience, and build you a network of support. Originally an ecotherapist, I now work mostly by phone or by video but continue to encourage my clients to consider meeting me while walking, or moving in their bodies when appropriate. I continue to offer ecotherapy when requested in three locations; San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Humboldt county redwood forest. “The doors to the world of the wild Self are few but precious. If you have a deep scar, that is a door, if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.” ― Clarissa Pinkola Estés

I sit on the board of the Nowak Society, an organization committed to stewarding new professionals and communities into the emerging possibilities associated with psychedelic education, healing, and advocacy. I teach graduate studies in psychology at SFSU, and open to speaking engagements on a variety of topics. My practice is informed by anti-racism, indigenous sovereignty, and deeply in service to sex workers and the beloved communities that support them.
