Let's talk about relationships!

This episode highlights our very own Eboni Gadson MSW, LSW. Eboni studied psychology at St. John's University in Queens, New York. When she's not working with individuals and couples at The Princeton Center for MindBody Healing, you can find her leading discussions about sexuality, trauma, healthy relationships, and how healthcare practitioners can provide more affirming care.

Eboni and I sit down to discuss all things relationships and answer your questions about monogamy, polygamy, and marriage. We also examine therapy options for individuals and couples exploring these topics. Lastly, we have some engaging dialogue about break-ups and dealing with many types of infidelity that can occur in a relationship.
