Professor Giancarlo Simpson: I specialize in Family Conflict, Relationship Issues and Coping Skills
I am Jamaican, currently living in South Florida. I am a Professor and I run a private practice offering therapy to individuals, couples, and families. I am currently finishing up my PhD in couples and family therapy at Nova. And my research explores the lived experiences of Afro-Caribbean men who are in polyamorous relationships. My aim is to continue research of both men and women in the Caribbean who practice Polyamory or other forms of consensual non-monogamy.
