Healing Gay Sex and Love: A Group Experience is a radical new form of queer literature-part clinical theatre, part confessional myth, part psychic map of shame, eros, and survival. Drawn from thirty years of LGBTQ-affirmative psychotherapy, it follows four gay men-Bobby, Andy, John, and Harry-as they fight to heal the buried wounds of sex, love, masculinity, and memory.Their group therapy sessions unfold through dream, memory, and raw emotion-from cracked leather couches in Los Angeles to the imaginal world of Plato's Symposium, where ancient gay wisdom returns as a living tool for recovery.

Healing Gay Sex and Love: A Group Experience is a radical new form of queer literature-part clinical theatre, part confessional myth, part psychic map of shame, eros, and survival. Drawn from thirty years of LGBTQ-affirmative psychotherapy, it follows four gay men-Bobby, Andy, John, and Harry-as they fight to heal the buried wounds of sex, love, masculinity, and memory.
Their group therapy sessions unfold through dream, memory, and raw emotion-from cracked leather couches in Los Angeles to the imaginal world of Plato's Symposium, where ancient gay wisdom returns as a living tool for recovery. Against a backdrop of AIDS loss, assimilation, and erotic shame, their journeys blur the line between psychoanalysis and performance, sacred eros and queer rage.
This is not your typical self-help book. It fuses queer theory, depth psychology, and group drama into a bold new form. With humor, tenderness, and rawness, Healing Gay Sex and Love offers no blueprint-only a group portrait for those done apologizing, done pretending, and ready for something messier, harder, more beautiful and more real than anything the mainstream can offer.
For readers of Paul Monette, Sarah Schulman, Essex Hemphill, and Felice Picano-and for anyone who's ever sat in the back of a gay bar or therapy room wondering if healing was possible, and what it might cost to get there.
The book will be released July 24, 2025
