Hi, I'm Bronwyn, and I specialize in ethical non-monogamy (ENM) and chronic illness through online and in-person counselling. I also work extensively with folks from the neurodivergent, LGBTQI+, kink and BDSM communities. ENM covers a range of relationship structures that fall outside of social norms, such as open-relationships and polyamory. Therapeutic topics often include jealousy, boundary setting, trust, attachment and sexual discovery. My work in the ENM field led me to author a book "The Beginner's Guide to Ethical Non-Monogamy". In this space I'm also known as 'The Polyamory Practitioner'; join me on Instagram and Facebook.

Have you suffered trauma in your past? Do you feel triggered and can't quite understand why? Excessive anger, paralyzing fear, feelings of emptiness, constant anxiety, sense of powerlessness, lingering sadness. They are most likely related to repressed feelings and they can leave a trail of unconscious destruction behind. What if you take charge? What if you decide it is time to finally bring those feelings to the surface and face them? That's called integration. It's when you get to know and eventually accept yourself. The fact you are reading this now shows you are ready to take that step. And I will be right there with you.
