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).

Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
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.

Dyani Saxby
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP, DBSM
My practice is different because I pay equal attention to the mind and body. I pursued board certifications in clinical health psychology and behavioral sleep medicine, which required me to undergo thousands of hours of training and examination beyond my Ph.D. to discover intricate connections between the mind and body. I try to listen more than I talk and I am also an active therapist--- I share when I feel I have something of value to add. My primary therapeutic modality is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Mindfulness-Based Therapy, which helps clients explore and get in-tuned with their own personal values and make changes from within that allow them to live in a way that aligns with those values. I also have extensive experience in helping clients with complex sleep disorders and offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) and beyond. For clients who have had traumatic or unpleasant experiences that continue to resurface, I offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). My top specialties include working with clients experiencing chronic pain, medical problems, sleep issues, and life / work-related stressors.
