Hi, I'm Hunter

I'm a coach specializing in ethical non-monogamy and consensual power exchange dynamics. I work with people who are building relationships that don't fit the standard mold. I’ve personally lived these relationships for over twenty years and pride myself on that.

My clients include kinky people, Dominants and submissives navigating power exchange, folks in polyamorous and other non-monogamous configurations, queer and trans people, sex workers, and anyone else whose life and love exist outside the mainstream. You don't have to translate yourself for me.

What coaching is (and isn't)

Coaching is a collaborative, forward-focused process. We work on communication, structure, agreements, conflict, transitions, and whatever is getting in the way of the relationships you actually want. It's practical and relational, not therapy, not clinical treatment, and not licensed mental health counseling. If you're navigating something that needs clinical support, I'll say so and help you find it.

That said, this work can go deep and touch identity, history, and the stories we carry about what we deserve. I bring care and nuance to that, including for people who've been harmed by religious institutions or traditional frameworks, and are building something new on their own terms.

Background

I hold a Master of Arts in Social Change with a chaplaincy concentration and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in LGBT and Sexuality Studies. I've worked in private practice counseling, harm reduction, and community advocacy for twenty years. I'm also ordained as an interfaith minister, which informs how I hold space, without imposing any particular framework on you.

My work has been recognized by the Associated Press, SF Chronicle, and LA Times, and I've spoken at universities and conferences across the country and internationally.
