Peter D. Ruffini
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II
As an award-winning psychotherapist, I specialize in high-impact individual therapy for capable men. With over 15 years of experience and advanced trauma training, I’m known for my work in pornography addiction, sex addiction, and men’s mental health. My practice is frequently sought out by other therapists who refer men facing issues requiring specialized treatment—such as sex and porn addiction, trauma, anger, infidelity, and anxiety. I have also been featured in media speaking about these topics.
As a clinical supervisor, I train other therapists in gold-standard, evidence-based treatments. I provide expert, structured, results-oriented therapy for men who want real change—not generic talk therapy or surface-level coping. Clients reach out when they want depth, direction, and results so if you’re here, you’ve already taken the first step toward real change. See why men across PA, NJ, and DE choose Proven Path Counseling.

Somatic Therapy
Joseph W. LaFleur
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW, DWTF, SEP, C-PATP
Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, especially when you're navigating complex emotions, identity questions, or past trauma. I'm Joseph LaFleur, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and the clinical director of District Counseling and Psychotherapy, serving clients throughout DC, Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, and New York.
**My Approach**
I specialize in helping men who often feel pressure to "have it together" find space to process what's really going on beneath the surface. Many of my clients come to me after years of pushing through—only to realize that approach isn't sustainable. Whether you're working through relationship challenges, career stress, depression, anxiety, or the aftermath of trauma, I offer a grounded, direct therapeutic style that respects your time and intelligence.
As an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, I work extensively with gay, bisexual, and queer men navigating identity, relationships, and the unique stressors that come with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. My practice is a space where you can show up exactly as you are.
**Specialized Training**
Beyond traditional talk therapy, I'm trained in Somatic Experiencing (SEP), which addresses how trauma lives in the body—not just the mind. For clients interested in emerging treatments, I'm also a Certified Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Provider (CPTAP), offering psychedelic integration therapy to help you make meaning from transformative experiences with ketamine, psilocybin, or other medicines.
**What to Expect**
I believe therapy works best when it's collaborative and practical. You won't find endless reflection without direction here. Together, we'll identify what's keeping you stuck and build concrete strategies for lasting change—while honoring the deeper emotional work that real transformation requires.
If you're ready to invest in yourself, I'd welcome the opportunity to connect.

Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Have you ever thought, "I know why I do this... so why do I keep doing it?" Many of my clients have been to therapy before, gained valuable insight, and learned coping skills, yet still find themselves repeating the same emotional and relationship patterns. If you're ready to move beyond understanding yourself intellectually and get to the root of what's keeping you stuck, I'd love to help.

Somatic Therapy
Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
I provide therapy for gay men and hold licenses in New Jersey, New York, and Utah. Many gay men worry that a therapist might not fully understand their experiences or that they’ll have to hide parts of themselves in session. I once shared those same concerns, and they’re what inspired me to become a therapist who offers affirming, authentic care. Together, we’ll create a supportive, judgment-free space where you can find clarity, growth, and the confidence to live more fully.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, trained at Columbia University, with additional certification as a sex therapist through AASECT and advanced relationship training from The Couples Institute. Over the past two decades, I’ve supported gay men in a variety of settings—including the NYC LGBT Community Center and Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC).
