I am currently working on my doctorate with the research focus on non-traditional relationship structures (consensual non-monogamy/open relationships/polyamory) and attachment issues.
I work with couples navigating relationship transitions and intimacy issues. If you find it difficult to achieve a sense of connection and fulfillment, please reach out. I help couples who experience the impact of past trauma on their relationship with themselves and others, and/or feel stuck in a cycle of conflict and distance.

Do you find yourself constantly worrying about what others think of you? Your heart races, your palms sweat, and your mind goes blank in social situations. You're afraid of being judged, and it feels like you're trapped in a cycle of anxiety and self-doubt. You long for connection, but the thought of attending social events or meeting new people leaves you feeling overwhelmed. Or maybe you're experiencing panic attacks that seem to come out of nowhere, making you feel like you're losing control. You might even find yourself feeling down, lacking motivation, and struggling to find joy in your day-to-day life. You're not alone!

Open Relationships Non-Monogamy Therapists

Why might an individual want to see a therapist specializing in open relationships and consensual non-monogamy?

A client seeking help with an open or consensually non-monogamous relationship will prefer to talk with a professional whom they can count on to be nonjudgmental. Talking with a supportive therapist may on its own help relieve some of the stigma and challenges partners face. That said, the most important factor in the success of any type of therapy is the ability of the client and practitioner to form a strong, trusting bond. For this reason, an individual or couple could find success with a therapist who does not specialize in non-monogamous relationships but with whom they can build trust.

When should open or consensually non-monogamous partners seek counseling?

Like other couples, polyamorous partners typically seek counseling when they face relationship challenges they can’t solve themselves. In non-monogamous relationships, this could include breaches of trust, including infidelity; unclear rules or violations of boundaries; jealousy of outside partners; the stress of juggling the needs of multiple partners; or the effect of high partner turnover on children. Like those of other couples, polyamorous bonds can be threatened by increasingly frequent arguments, poor or dysfunctional communication, diminished emotional or physical intimacy, or the feeling that something is wrong, even if they don’t know what it is.

Do therapists have special training to gain expertise in open relationships and consensual non-monogamy?

No, but individuals seeking help with non-monogamous relationships would most likely consult a licensed professional with specific training in couples counseling or couples therapy. Couples counseling and couples therapy both involve teaching concrete strategies to navigate conflict in relationships. A good therapist can engage both partners as they explain these approaches but can also work with a single partner.

How long does therapy for consensually non-monogamous couples typically last?

Couples therapy for any type of couple, tends to be relatively time-limited, lasting around 12 weeks on average. A good therapist will tailor sessions to the individual partners’ emotions and sometimes their past, along with patterns found to be repeating in the relationship. In many cases, clients should expect their therapist to assign “homework” between weekly sessions.
