The Admin Team

Lena Queen (Queen/they/she)

 Where I am in my healing, which began 19 years, is a long way from where I started.

That start marked the beginning of my healing practice as both a practitioner and facilitator of healing.  Today, in my professional life, I am private practice clinical somatic sex therapist, sex educator, transformational life & erotic coach, plant medicine advocate, and clinical entrepreneur & professional development coach. In my personal life, I am  Black baby Elder who is a queer, gender fluid, polyamorous, kinky, lofi traphousejazz hippie, sexual-spiritual, spiritual-sexual, and erotic human being. 


Who am I personally informs & impacts how I show up professionally; code-switching or not. I  believe we all experience our own unique set of events that affect our emotional, mental, spiritual,  and sexual well-being- our WHOLE Self.


In this belief as Executive Director, The Institute will assist you in unpacking and unlearning the negativity you learned about yourself, your clients, and your colleagues as a result of your interactions with family, friends/peer groups, community, culture, &  mainstream standards of  sex-negativity (or not), eroticism, sexual pleasure, social expectations, desirability, and everything in between.


The programs and services offered will also allow healing professionals to challenge their biases and understanding about the erotic-both sexual and non-sexual, in addition to, who gets to be sexual. More importantly, the offerings will be provide a healing-justice framework to transform both personal and professional healing. 


One of my favorite quotes:

 " Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-perservation, and that is an act of political warfare."   -Audre Lorde
