Charity, PsyD, specializes in trauma and interpersonal neurobiology. She’s interested in how attachment and connection interweave, and how genuine relating in the absence of defense mechanisms enhances capacity for self-knowledge. She is currently working on applying John Gottman’s work on relationships to different styles of consensual non-monogamy.

Charity uses what we know about the brain and mirror neurons to help others learn to navigate the difficult waters of polyamory at all phases and stages. She has special interest in how religious upbringing creates emotional memories of shame that can have enduring negative impacts on sexual relating until those memories are fully processed and integrated.

Cliff, MSC, first profession was 20+ years of teaching meditation to 2,500 people all over the world (Iran, India, Philippines, Switzerland, US). He's studied Tantra since 1998 with Alan Lowen, and is a graduate of Alan's 2-year Body, Heart & Soul Training (http://artofbeing.com/).

He’s assisted at 25+ week-long Tantra courses in Germany and Switzerland and has facilitated hundreds of workshops with thousands of attendees on meditation, intimacy, sexuality, polyamory, boundaries and presence.

Their goal is to create a safe and nurturing space where you can explore your edges and learn more about your deepest self, desires, and relationships, while unwinding the blocks that get in your way. All activities are entirely consensual.
