RANDI FREDRICKS, PH.D.

Randi Fredricks, Ph.D. has an unusual habit of following interesting questions far beyond the point where most people would have stopped. The result is that she somehow spent her entire career trying to understand men, women, desire, love, and human flourishing. She never intended for it to get this out of hand, but somewhere along the way, things escalated into multiple books, original therapeutic models, published research, hundreds of chapters, and an alarming number of trademark applications. Welcome to the madness, where the sacred and the obscene do the dance of love.
