Dante Harker is a clinical hypnotherapist with 27 years' experience. He works with individuals and couples on sex and relationships, including men's sexual health, on Zoom. He's an NCH Registered Supervisor and teaches therapists. The Identity Update™ is his method for therapists to use inside longer treatment.

He speaks in plain language about sex, relationships, and what gets in the way of both: desire, performance, intimacy, and the habit of marking yourself on it. Men's sexual health sits inside that work. Erection problems, coming too quickly, and anxiety in bed are part of the specialism, not a separate clinic.

He teaches other therapists through Gold Leaf Training. The Identity Update is not something a client books, and it has no price.

Former leadership roles include The Big Issue in the North and North East Lincolnshire Mind. He is available for podcasts, panels and festival talks. For booking, email info@danteharker.com with Podcast / Speaking in the subject line.

Dante Harker is a clinical hypnotherapist with 27 years' experience. He works with individuals and couples on sex and relationships, including men's sexual health, on Zoom. He's an NCH Registered Supervisor and teaches therapists. The Identity Update™ is his method for therapists to use inside longer treatment, not a programme a client books on its own.

His clinical work covers desire, performance, intimacy, and the patterns that get in the way, for people on their own and for couples. Men's sexual health is a specialism inside that: erection problems, coming too quickly, anxiety in bed. Sessions are online, worldwide. If something needs a medical check, he says so. Therapy can sit alongside a GP or a sexual health clinic. It does not replace one.

He teaches therapists through Gold Leaf Training, including men's psychosexual health when a course is running. He does not offer personal training, yoga classes, or gym work. Those qualifications are background only. He also offers clinical supervision to qualified therapists, including people who are newly qualified. That is separate from the teaching.

On a stage or a long podcast he talks in the same plain language he uses with a client. Typical themes include sex and relationships, men's sexual health, shame and asking for help, clinical hypnotherapy, and how therapists can work with this material. Appearances include The Mind Control Chronicles, Soul Escape Festival, the International Hypnotherapy Association, Pop on the Couch, and Needle.

Former leadership roles include The Big Issue in the North and North East Lincolnshire Mind. From that work he can also talk about confidence, burnout, and mental health at work, without turning it into a slogan. For booking, email info@danteharker.com with Podcast / Speaking in the subject line.
