There is a wide range of things that can upend the life you designed or desire for yourself. Couples once madly in love discover communication grows harder and harder. Families plentiful in resources realize they are poor in connection. It can be overwhelming to lose a loved one, a job, a marriage, health, dignity, a sense of security, trust, and self-respect. What begins with great potential somehow transitions into a troubled existence. I would value an opportunity to talk with you about what is impacting your life and help you find the path to the outcomes you want.

High achievers face unique challenges. Balancing multiple roles and high expectations can feel like a juggling act. Burnout is a looming concern, impacting your productivity & your overall happiness. Impostor syndrome plagues you despite your achievements. The constant pressure to do/be more leads to the fear that the success you've worked hard for might jeopardize your well-being. You desire a sanctuary where the stress of achieving transforms into opportunities for personal growth. Beyond the career, there's a yearning for holistic success: a life where personal well-being isn't sacrificed on the altar of achievements.

Because it can be difficult to know when to reach out to a therapist, especially when seeking help is discouraged, many of us struggle for a long time on our own. Our painful emotions restrict us, stealing our enjoyment of life, interfering with our work, and disrupting our ability to have genuine, satisfying relationships. Reaching out is a sign of your strength and a demonstration of your hope that, with some help, change is possible. Over the years, I've helped individuals from many backgrounds with challenges such as depression, anxiety, work and relationship problems, grief and loss, immigration, and life transitions.

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.
