In this episode of Hopefulsexual, Producer/Host Nicholas Snow welcomes Dr. Sean Ferri, PsyD, to discuss how to address the fact that “stigma and shame can keep us from receiving our basic needs of love and belonging which leads to an increase and loneliness and isolation which has been labeled a global pandemic by the World Health Organization.”
This is one of those topics Snow wishes didn’t even exist, but since it does, let’s look for ways through!
Dr. Sean Ferri, PsyD is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in California (#34510) and New Jersey (#35SI00737900). He currently serves as the Senior Manger, Clinical Support and Clinical Psychologist at the LGBTQ Community Center of the Desert in Palm Springs. He also maintains a private practice. His doctoral research focused on the need for expanding LGBTQ+ competency within school-based mental health programs across the U.S. Prior to his clinical work, he was an educator and taught in a multitude of settings including China, Harlem, NY, and NJ. He currently teaches Human Sexuality and Intimacy at Pepperdine’s Graduate School of Education & Psychology. His areas of focus include the LGBTQ+ Community, anxiety, grief, and exploring the intersectionality of neurodivergency and gender identity.

How, exactly, is Nicholas Snow building an online television network?
For now, all the series are produced and hosted by Snow, but as the network grows, his vision is to lead a large creative team and perhaps collaborate with a major television network. Think Netflix.
Just as other Creators use crowdfunding platforms to support their film and television projects, Snow encourages viewers to become one of “The PromoHomo.TV® One Thousand”, folks who voluntarily subscribe to the free content for as little as $3.00/month via the Patreon platform.
“I support PromoHomo.TV® because we live in a time of increased hostility towards the LGBTQ+ community,” explains Robert Karl, Queer author. “Representation is more vital than ever, and PromoHomo.TV® amplifies Queer voices, promotes positive stories, and stands strong against those who attack us. PromoHomo.TV promotes the Queer community.”
Join Karl and about 30 other folks to grow The PromoHomo.TV® One Thousand…
