Cormac Flynn (he/him/his) believes therapy begins with the person and what they are seeking from the therapeutic experience. Cormac’s approach is collaborative, warm, affirming, and non-pathologizing. He works to help each client cultivate self-compassion, self-acceptance, and satisfying relationships. He draws on relational, psychodynamic, strengths-based, narrative, and behavioral approaches as appropriate and believes in the transformational potential of the therapeutic experience.
Cormac specializes in working with people whose identities, practices, or relationships don’t fit neatly into society’s prescribed gender and sexuality boxes. Cormac brings a rich tapestry of life experience to his work as a therapist, including decades as an executive coach, and previous careers in politics, environmental advocacy, and capacity building. His work is also informed by years of lived and witnessed experience navigating kink, fetish, gender nonconformity, LGBTQIA+ identity, polyamory, FLRs (female-led relationships) and CNM (consensual non-monogamy) relationships.
Cormac identifies as a White male with multiple queer and non-binary identities.
