Non-Monogamy & Polyamory
How I help
When struggling in a non-monogamous or polyamorous relationship, finding a therapist who truly understands your dynamic can feel daunting. You need support that honors your values while helping you navigate the real-world challenges of open relationships, but what you’re often met with is judgment. In times like these, working with someone who specializes in non-monogamy couples therapy can make all the difference.
Is this you?
-
Even though you've agreed to ethical non-monogamy, feelings of insecurity or fear keep surfacing.
-
Conversations about rules, limits, or agreements quickly spiral into arguments or shutdowns.
-
Agreements have been broken or blurred, and now you’re struggling to rebuild trust.
-
You’re trying to talk honestly, but end up feeling misunderstood, dismissed, or overwhelmed.
-
Your needs aren't being met while attention goes elsewhere, and you’re feeling emotionally sidelined.
-
One partner is excited about polyamory while the other feels unsure or pressured to go along with it.
Mastering the art of moving parts.
Navigating ethical non-monogamy (ENM), open relationships, or polyamory isn't just about working through dry logistics—it’s also about emotions, boundaries, and trust. For many couples, jealousy creeps in even when agreements are clear. Communication may start with the best intentions but ends in spirals of misunderstanding or shutdown. One partner might crave expansion while the other fears losing their sense of connection. The result? Distance, confusion, and a growing sense that you're on different pages.
In the absence of clear boundaries, the very foundation of your relationship can feel unstable. Time gets stretched between partners, leaving someone feeling deprioritized. Trust may be fragile—especially if a past agreement was broken or if one of you is moving faster than the other. When you finally do decide that it’s time for some help, there's often a lingering fear that a therapist won’t understand or respect your relationship structure.
This is where non-monogamy couples therapy or polyamory couples counseling becomes essential. A supportive, nonjudgmental space can help you rebuild trust, clarify agreements, and reconnect emotionally—on your terms, not someone else's.
How I help.
I offer ethical non-monogamy therapy that’s rooted in curiosity, compassion, and building effective communication tools. My goal isn’t to change your relationship structure—it’s to support it. Whether you're polyamorous, exploring an open relationship, or navigating new dynamics, I provide a space where both partners feel seen, heard, and respected. We’ll unpack your current situation and connect it to the underlying emotions—like jealousy, fear, or disconnection—without judgment.
Together, we’ll strengthen your communication and create agreements that actually work for both of you. That might mean redefining boundaries, learning to repair past injuries, or finding better ways to manage your time and emotional energy. I draw from evidence-based approaches while tailoring each session to your unique dynamic—because no two non-monogamous relationships are the same.
If you’ve been looking to get support around your open relationship, I’m here to offer guidance that aligns with your values and allows your relationship the freedom to grow.
