Richard A. Cohen is a psychotherapist, author, and sexual orientation therapist. Cohen, founder and Executive Director Emeritus of the International Healing Foundation, gives trainings and runs seminars and workshops on his theories of how to help lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people who experience unwanted same-sex attraction. Cohen, who once experienced living with a gay identity in his youth, allegedly underwent years of psychotherapy to heal childhood issues which?he claims?had led to his homosexual feelings. He says that his therapy and personal growth helped him to understand his same-sex attractions, and to eventually transition to heterosexuality. Cohen lives in Washington, D.C. with his wife and has three adult children. His foundation, the International Healing Foundation, offers psychotherapy, coaching, teleconferencing classes, and healing seminars for members of the LGBT community and other individuals with unwanted SSA. [More at Wikipedia]
