Being queer comes with many gifts and challenges. Family wounding, relationship difficulties, and a lack of authentic community often disrupt our innate drive toward wholeness. As a gay man, Nathan has a unique understanding of the challenges that come with being lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, gay, queer, gender non-conforming, gender queer, asexual, intersex, transgender, questioning, etc. While our identities come up against religious communities in ways that are less than welcomed, our identities are also the key to our deepest spiritual gifts.

Being a member of the theatre community is a gift that few take lightly. It is a calling and a rich gift. Nathan worked for over a decade as a professional actor, and has maintained close ties to the Broadway community. He founded a not-for-profit, Broadway Gives Back, which works to establish connections between non-profit organizations and the Broadway community. Nathan works privately with many members of the Broadway community to support the distinct and sometimes difficult spiritual path of being a working actor.
Animal Welfare
Theatre Community
Animal Welfare
Achieving social change for animals is the calling of a lifetime. Making a difference can also mean that you run out of energy, compassion, and some days feel very, very dark. As an animal lover and animal welfare worker, Nathan has a unique view into the challenges that come with working in this field. Nathan is available for both 1-on-1 spiritual/grief counseling, as well as group work.
